The story behind it

The maker

Founded by Charles de Pesters and Johannes van Marwijk Kooy in 1870, Amstel was named after the river that flowed through Amsterdam. The brand introduced its famous Light expression to the United States market in 1980, quickly defining the premium import light beer category.

How it is made

Amstel Light is brewed by the historic Amstel Brouwerij, which was founded in Amsterdam in 1870. The brewery utilizes a signature method of slow brewing with natural ingredients to yield an exceptionally smooth light lager.
