  • Anheuser-Busch:Estrella Jalisco

nbbnbThe competitive imported Mexican beer marketplace will get a new player with Anheuser-Busch InBev bringing the Estrella Jalisco brand to the United States. The 106-year-old Pilsner brand was first brewed in the city of Guadalajara, the capital and the largest city in the Mexican state of Jalisco.Estrella Jalisco’s packaging reflects its roots with the red, blue and yellow color scheme inspired by the flag of Jalisco, and the crest on the label inspired by the coat of arms of the city of Guadalajara. Anheuser-Busch InBev is betting on Hispanic consumers who will recognize and be familiar with the brew. The brand will be distributed in 10 states, including California, Texas, Illinois, New Mexico and New York.Anheuser-Busch began limited distribution of Montejo, another beer from the Grupo Modelo portfolio, in 2014. Montejo was similarly positioned as “authentically Mexican,” but the brand’s largely regional status within Mexico limited its ability to catch on here in the U.S.
