Superior Lager

Beer Description

First brewed in 1896 and once the flagship beer of the historic Cuauhtémoc brewery, Superior carries the classic slogan 'La rubia que todos quieren' ('The blonde that everyone loves'). It became part of Heineken's portfolio through the 2010 acquisition of FEMSA's Mexican beer business.
