Quilmes - Argentinian Beer - Cerveza x 340ml glass bottle 4,9.5% ABV (20% VAT to be applied at Checkout) BBE: 23.03.2025

Cerveza Quilmes is a classic lager, based on a Munich style Pilsener, that reflects its brewing heritage: golden colour, rich texture, refreshing light hoppy taste with a crisp, dry thirst quenching finish.

Food pairing: lightly spiced Mexican, Thai, Vietnamese, Caribbean cuisine; rich egg dishes and all types of seafood. 

The 2018 re-branding of the now Quilmes Clasica highlights a new seal with a farming logo proudly stating the beer is made with malted barley and Patagonian hops of the best quality.

Quilmes has a 46% share of its home market – it truly is “Argentina’s Favourite Beer” – and this Argentinian icon is enjoying an international reputation with export growth in the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe.

It is great lager to drink on its own but also makes a good food match with South American or Mediterranean cuisine and has an established following.

Alcohol/VOL: 4.9%

A bit of history: 

Quilmes brewery was founded by German inmigrant Otto Bemberg in Quilmes (a city in the province of Buenos Aires).

​It all started in Quilmes, where the quality of water and the proximity to the train station made it a suitable place to start his brewery.

There, he worked hard to brew a balanced, light-bodied lager that lived up to its German heritage.

Finally after two years of trial and error, electricity arrived in Argentina, and that same year, the first Quilmes chopp was thrown!

He arrived in Argentina from Europe with the idea that, over time, it would become the most important beer in Argentina.
