Mexican beers, such as Corona, Pacifico, and Modelo, have become the new favorite of American consumers, dethroning Bud Light, which had held the title of the “king of beers” for 22 years. Modelo Especial, in particular, overtook Bud Light in May and June of 2023 and is now the number one beer in America by revenue. Constellation Brands, which distributes Modelo, reported a 6.4% increase in revenue in the quarter ending May 31st, compared to the same period last year. Mexican beer was already dominating the US market prior to Bud Light’s fall, with Mexican beer imports doubling between 2013 and 2023. Demographics also play a role, as Hispanics make up about 19% of the US population and are more likely to favor Modelo Especial. Constellation Brands has marketed heavily towards this group but is also expanding its advertising strategy to appeal to a broader customer base. Craft beers are also on the rise, and Modelo Especial fits into this trend as consumers are willing to spend more on each beer. Experts predict that Modelo Especial will remain the number one beer in America for years to come.

Something about Mexican beer that feels refreshing. If I’m at the beach a Modelo or Corona ‘feels’ more refreshing of an idea than say if I had a Budweiser or some other beer. Maybe it’s the marketing, maybe it’s the Mexican beaches that I always see in pictures that puts me in that place. I don’t know. 😂

Low standards among drinkers, Cheap, excellent marketing with a dark blue label to give the cold aesthetic, so light that featherweights can show off to their friends and pretty disposable beer at parties.
