OUR STORY

We are proud of our roots in the golden Mexican sunshine. For over 120 years, our dedication to quality has been at the source of something truly unique: the opportunity to taste the sun.

1899

Born in an independent Mexico

Sol was born at the very end of the 19th century in a country still celebrating its newfound independence. An Independence that was fought for by four iconic generals: father Hidalgo, Allende, Guerrero and Morelos.

Named after the sun

Legend has it that as the master brewer bottled the first batch of an experimental new recipe, it was illuminated by a ray of sunlight and he decided to name it “El Sol”. It was in early 1900 that the brand became the now iconic "Sol."

Raised in Orizaba

After the acquisition of the brewery “El Salto del Agua”, Sol moved to Orizaba in early 1900, where the beer - blessed by using the closest waters to the sun - became a Mexican icon.

Shining bright beyond borders

The chance to enjoy the positive energy of the sun with a refreshing Sol beer is already available in over 70 countries around the globe.
