Corona is a Mexican brand of beer produced by Grupo Modelo in Mexico and exported to markets around the world. Constellation Brands is the exclusive licensee and sole importer of Corona in the fifty states of the United States, Washington, D.C., and Guam. Belgian company AB InBev owns the beer in all other worldwide markets and it solely brews the beer for all markets including the US. Corona is now brewed in China for the Australasia market. It is the top-selling brand of imported beer in the United States.[5] It is often served with a wedge of lime or lemon in the neck of the bottle to add tartness and flavor.[6] The recipe for the mash bill includes corn as well as the barley malt and hops traditionally used for making beer.
The brand's most popular variation is Corona Extra, a pale lager. It is one of the top-selling beers worldwide,[7] and Corona Extra has been the top-selling imported drink in the U.S. since 1998.[8][9] Other variants of the Corona beer brand include Corona Light, Corona Premier, and Corona Familiar. A variety of flavored hard seltzers marketed under the Corona brand name was launched in March 2020.[10]
Modelo's Corona brand has been the top-selling import beer in the United States for years and is the seventh-best selling brand there overall.
