16 Best Selling Imported Beer Brands in US in 2017

9. Modelo Especial Chelada

Modelo Especial Chelada is a beer brewed in Mexico, which represents a blend of Modelo Especial with flavors of tomato, salt and lime. The Chelada originated as a drink that consumers were making at home, using beer, lime juice and assorted spices, sauces, and peppers. Grupo Modelo capitalized on that by making the Modelo Especial Chelada in a ready-to-drink can using its own Modelo Especial beer. In the U.S, it is imported by Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE:STZ) and generated sales of $88.60 million last year.
