Aguila is owned by AB InBev (Belgium, NYSE: BUD), which acquired the brand on 10 October 2016 from SABMiller.[1][2] Before AB InBev, Aguila was owned by SABMiller to 2016.[2]
Aguila is a Colombian lager brewed since 1913 and one of the most widely sold beers in Colombia, closely tied to the Caribbean coast and to national football sponsorship. AB InBev acquired it with SABMiller in 2016, which had itself bought the parent Bavaria group in 2005.
AB InBev acquired SABMiller in one of the largest takeovers ever recorded, creating a brewer with roughly a quarter of the beer sold worldwide. Regulators in the United States, Europe, China and South Africa required extensive divestitures, including SABMiller's stake in MillerCoors and its European Peroni, Grolsch and Meantime brands.
