Sipping: Bold Beer. Baja Born.

Tecate is a classic Mexican lager that’s been brewed since 1944 in the border town of Tecate, Baja California.

Known for its bold red can and refreshing flavor, Tecate Original offers a crisp, light-to-medium body with just the right balance of malt sweetness and hop bitterness. It finishes clean and dry, making it a go-to beer for everything from backyard barbecues to game-day gatherings.

Tecate Light, its lower-calorie counterpart, delivers an ultra-refreshing experience with a very light body, subtle cereal grain notes, and smooth carbonation.

With an ABV of 3.9%, it’s perfect for all-day sipping, especially in warm weather. Whether customers are looking for something bold or light and easygoing, Tecate’s lineup provides approachable options that stay true to its Mexican roots and no-nonsense attitude.

A Little Different, A Lot of Fun

🌶️ Dressed-Up Tecate – The Bold Way to Sip - Tecate doesn’t need frills—but it welcomes flavor. Dress up your red can or Tecate Light with classic Mexican touches that bring heat, salt, and citrus to the forefront:

🧂 Tajin Rim + Lime Wedge - Run a lime around the rim of the can or glass, then dip in Tajin for a spicy, zesty punch. Squeeze in a fresh lime wedge to brighten the crisp malt base. It’s bold meets bolder.

🧊 Beer on the Rocks – Michelada Lite - Tecate Light is perfect for michelada-style sipping. Pour over ice, add a dash of lime juice, a splash of Clamato or tomato juice, and a salted rim for a refreshing twist with kick.

🌽 Chamoy & Chili Rim - Add chamoy and chili-lime salt to the rim of your glass or tallboy for that sweet-heat finish that pairs perfectly with Tecate’s dry, clean profile.

🍻 Cantarito-Style Can - Serve Tecate in a clay cup with crushed ice, grapefruit soda, lime juice, and a pinch of salt—like a riff on a classic cantarito, but beer-forward and ice-cold.
