AB InBev resolved the branding issues with Torres in 2016, with the beer starting to be sold as Corona in Spain from June of that year. The packaging was otherwise the same in Spain as in Mexico and the United States. Since the 80s, Corona had been branded as Coronita (literally, 'little crown') in Spain, as winemaker Bodegas Torres had owned the trademark for "Coronas" since 1907. A draught version also exists, as does canned Corona in some markets. Packaging Ĭorona beer is available in a variety of bottle presentations, ranging from the 207 ml (7.0 U.S. fl oz 7.3 imp fl oz) ampolleta (labeled Coronita and just referred as the cuartito) up to the 940 ml (31.8 U.S. fl oz 33.1 imp fl oz) Corona Familiar (known as the familiar, Litro or Mega). Ingredients A truck in Mexico decorated with the Corona brand nameĪccording to Sinebrychoff, a Finnish company owned by the Carlsberg Group, Corona Extra contains barley malt, corn, hops, yeast, antioxidants ( ascorbic acid), and propylene glycol alginate as a stabilizer. A variety of flavored hard seltzers marketed under the Corona brand name was launched in March 2020. Other variants of the Corona beer brand include Corona Light, Corona Premier, and Corona Familiar. It is one of the top-selling beers worldwide, and Corona Extra has been the top-selling imported drink in the U.S. The brand's most popular variation is Corona Extra, a pale lager. The recipe for the mash bill includes corn as well as the barley malt and hops traditionally used for making beer. It is often served with a wedge of lime or lemon in the neck of the bottle to add tartness and flavor. It is the top-selling brand of imported beer in the United States. Belgian company AB InBev owns the beer in all other markets. Constellation Brands is the exclusive licensee and sole manufacturer and producer of Corona in the fifty states of the United States, Washington, D.C., and Guam. Corona ExtraĬorona is a brand of beer produced in multiple breweries in Mexico and imported to markets around the world. For the song by Shwayze, see Corona and Lime (song).
