Mexican Breweries History: CERVECERIA DEL PACIFICO
Pacifico Clara (its full name) is a pilsner that first was brewed
in 1900 when three Germans opened the Cerveceria del Pacifico brewery in
Mazatlan. Cerveza Pacifico means Pacific Beer and is named so because the
Pacifico brewery is located in the pacific port city of Mazatlán, in the state
of Sinaloa, México. The picture inside the lifesaver depicts local islands"
Las Islas de los venados"which means the deer islands which havea nice population
of deer.The locals ask for it as a "Pacificoballena"which means "Pacific Whale".
"Clara" means clear.
The Pacifico brewery was bought by Mexican brewing giant Grupo Modelo in 1954. The Anheuser-Busch company now owns a little more than half of Grupo Modelo. |
