History of beer Alhambra
We will briefly review the history of the brand Alhambra so that you can discover the origin of this nationally outstanding beer.
Although in 1884 there was already a brewery in Granada that was named after , its Alhambra start as a brand began in 1925. The company re-emerged thanks to the initiative of a French/Catalan, a Basque and with the participation of the owner of La Moravia (Carlos Bouvard).
They started to brew the beer with medicinal water from a water spring and the Aynadamar ditch. The brand was very successful between 1960 and 1980. But twenty years ago it went through a bad period, from which it emerged thanks to a chemist who created the Alhambra Reserva 1925, along with other later creations.
The brand has had many ups and downs over the years. It had to sell part of its stock abroad and even went through a little bump with Heineken.
In 2006, it became part of the Mahou-San Miguel group (another well-known Spanish beer brand). The company concentrates its sales in Eastern Andalusia, although since 2000 it began to expand to other Spanish regions.
