Santiago de Cuba Brewery is a Cuban brewery historically linked to the Bacardí company, operating out of Santiago de Cuba, the island's second-largest city and a hub of Caribbean brewing heritage. The brewery's roots trace back to the early twentieth century, when Bacardí — already renowned for its rum production — expanded into beer, establishing a brewing operation that would become part of Cuba's broader drinks industry. The brewery is best known for producing Hatuey, a light lager introduced in 1927 as a tribute to the indigenous Taíno chief Hatuey, a symbol of resistance in Cuban history. The beer exemplifies the approachable, refreshing lager style characteristic of Caribbean brewing, brewed for warm climates and a broad drinking audience. Hatuey became one of Cuba's most iconic beer brands, representing a distinct chapter in the island's brewing culture. Given the limited available sources, further details about the brewery's current operations, full portfolio, or taproom experience cannot be confirmed at this time.
