The story behind it

The maker

Grupo Modelo was founded in 1925 in Mexico City and quickly grew to become the nation's leading brewery. Its signature dark beer, Modelo Negra, was introduced to showcase the masterful integration of Viennese brewing traditions within Mexico's vibrant culinary landscape.

How it is made

First brewed in Mexico by Austrian expatriates in 1925, this beer pays homage to classic European brewing methods. Crafted in the traditional Munich Dunkel style, it relies on slow, careful fermentation in state-of-the-art brewhouses.
