About Corona

Corona is a popular Mexican beer brand well-known for its pale, light flavor and refreshing taste, making it a favorite among beer drinkers globally. Founded in 1925 in the city of Mexicali, Baja California, Corona has carved a niche for itself as a tropical beer, often associated with beach outings and sunny skies.

Manufacturing

Primarily brewed in Mexico, Corona is produced at Grupo Modelo's facilities, which is one of the largest brewing companies in the country. Grupo Modelo was originally established by a group of Mexican entrepreneurs, and their commitment to quality has ensured that Corona remains a staple in many households and bars around the world. The beer's iconic label and clear bottle are instantly recognizable, often garnished with a lime wedge to enhance its signature taste.

Ownership

In 2013, Grupo Modelo was acquired by Anheuser-Busch InBev, making it part of one of the largest beverage companies globally. This acquisition expanded the reach of Corona, integrating it into a vast portfolio that includes many other famous beer brands. As of 2026 and beyond, Corona continues to thrive under the ownership of Anheuser-Busch InBev, with operations rooted in Mexico but enjoyed worldwide.
