When you reach for a Mexican Lager, you’re part of a tradition that goes back over a century. This classic beer style was born in the late 1800s, when German and Austrian brewers immigrated to Mexico, bringing their love for traditional European lagers. Soon, they began adapting these recipes to Mexico’s warm climate and local ingredients, creating a beer that was lighter, more refreshing, and perfectly suited for pairing with the bold flavors of Mexican cuisine. Thus, the Mexican Lager was born—a clean, crisp, and subtly malty brew that’s as enjoyable with company as it is on a quiet evening at home.
Over time, Mexican Lager gained popularity well beyond its borders, becoming a staple for beer lovers around the world. Today, this style holds a unique place in the craft beer scene, valued for its smooth drinkability and timeless appeal. Our Mexican Lager pays tribute to this historic style, crafted to be smooth, easy-drinking, and bursting with refreshment. With every sip, you’re transported to a place where life slows down, and every moment is worth savoring.
A TAPROOM HIT
Our Mexican Lager started as a taproom exclusive, and from the very first pour, it was clear we had something special on our hands. Customers loved its light, crisp profile, and smooth finish—perfect for sipping in our laid-back Richmond taproom. The positive feedback was overwhelming, and it wasn’t long before we decided to expand beyond the taproom. We began offering it in kegs to local bars and restaurants, where it quickly became a favorite for those seeking a classic, refreshing lager with a hint of California flair.
And soon, you’ll be able to find our Mexican Lager in 12oz cans! Now you can bring that taproom experience with you wherever you go, whether it’s a backyard BBQ, a picnic in the park, or a night in with friends.
