Modelo is one of Mexico's most beloved beer brands, brewed by Grupo Modelo — now a subsidiary of AB InBev — in Mexico City. Modelo Especial, the flagship, was first brewed in 1925 and has become the best-selling imported beer in the United States. Brewed with a blend of purified water, malt, non-malted cereals, and hops, Modelo delivers a crisp, well-balanced pilsner-style lager with a slightly sweet, orange-blossom honey note. The Modelo family includes cheladas, light options, and the rich dark lager Negra Modelo, all beloved for their authentic Mexican character and quality.
