does anyone know which brand of beer Bond and felix are drinking, id really like to know, my apoligies if this was already posted i just couldnt find it.

[Blofeld's Cat]

A resource on what Bond drinks is Make Mine a 007..., but the Quantum of Solace page is pretty basic at the moment. It just says he's drinking a beer.

A look at the sponsors section of the end credits to the movie might give a clue though.

[007Bond007]

Right good suggestion.

[Judo chop]

I've done a deal of research on the beer and came up with ziltoid. Nada. I don't think it exists.

I do know, however, that the wine Bond drinks... is cheap.

The label of the beer is "Cervecita"

From what I gather, cervecita is a Mexican term for beer.

I thought the beer said "cerveza," which is Spanish for "beer." Could be a local brew but I haven't been able to come up with any solid evidence leading toward any specific brand. Perhaps the production team just slapped on a few generic Spanish-looking labels?

[007Bond007]

Very odd.

Cut and pasted...
Today, most Mexican beers are produced by the two beer giants, FEMSA and Grupo Modelo. FEMSA is a general beverage corporation whose roots date to back to 1890 and the first large Mexican brewery, Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma in Monterrey. With their brands – Tecate, Sol, Dos Equis, Carta Blanca, Superior, Indio, Bohemia and Noche Buena – FEMSA is a major international brewer. Grupo Modelo has fewer brands but a larger part of the Mexican beer export market with Corona, Corona Light, Negra Modelo, Modelo Especial, Modelo Light, and Pacífico, their six export brands. They also brew brands intended solely for the domestic market: Victoria (a recent advertising campaign for this brand was centered around the fact that it is unavailable abroad); Estrella (a local beer found only in the west of the country); and León and Montejo (originally local to Yucatán but nowadays available nationwide). Grupo Modelo is 49 per cent owned by Anheuser-Busch but control of the company remains with Modelo's Mexican shareholders.


There is however, a beer in Argentina near that name...

According to Google Language Tools "cervezita" does not translate into anything in either Spanish or Portuguese. However, as mentioned before "cerveza" does translate into "beer" in both languages. But GLT does translate "cervezita" from Italian to English as "cerveza"!

[Marketto007]

To clear this off, "CERVEZITA" means LITTLE BEAR.

Same here.

Bond also ordered a beer (Bud Light) in the Barrelhead Bar in LTK, but the fight broke out before he actually had the chance to drink it.

[BlackFire]

"Cervezita" is the diminutive to "Cerveza".

Idon't know any brand of beer with that name here.

[007Bond007]

Perfect, but nothing comes up when searched on google. This is actually quite odd.

Well then. Now that is cleared up I shall go back to my Korma and newspaper.

Ah yes! forgot about that.


Isn't he also drinking a beer in Die Another Day, just as Jinx comes out of the water?

Yep, mojito.

No, not at all. As the showing of the new Ford Ka doesn't look like a car ad, right??!!!

[Mr. Arlington Beech]

Why many are talking and discussing about mexican beers?? If some real beer could have appeared- which I don't think is the case, 'cause as far as I know "cervecita" isn't a beer brand-, it should have been a bolivian one.

[Marketto007]

It's because they made up that Beer. Doesn't actually exist, got it?
