San Miguel

The first San Miguel Brewery was founded in 1890 in the Philippines by Enrique Maria Barreto under a Royal Charter. The Spanish brewery was established later in 1946 with the Filipino brewery licensing them to brew San Miguel beer.

In 1953, the two breweries separated, brewing San Miguel independently and each growing to become the largest brewer in their respective countries. More recently, the two signed a cooperation agreement, working together once again to promote San Miguel as one of the world's best selling premium beers.
