Dos Equis Products

The year is 1500, and Moctezuma, the last leader of the Aztecs, rules the land that is currently known as Mexico. He would come to be the inspiration for the Dos Equis® label design. Moctezuma famously confronted the Spanish conquistador, Hernán Cortés, and Dos Equis® celebrates his boldness. In 1890, Wilhelm Hasse, a German immigrant, arrives in Mexico and founds the Moctezuma Brewery in Veracruz. Wilhelm Hasse first brews Siglo XX, the beer we know today as Dos Equis® Ambar in 1897. He named the beer Siglo XX to usher in the upcoming 20th century with the Roman numeral “XX” signifying 20, and the Spanish word “Siglo” meaning century. Dos Equis® Lager Especial was first imported to the US in 1983, and has since been inspiring consumers to “Get a Dos.” Dos Equis® Lager Especial is a golden pilsner-style beer made from pure spring water and the choicest hops. With a balanced composition and a smooth, clean finish, it’s the party guest who is always invited and never overstays his welcome.
