dos equis was first brewed in mexico by the german brewer wilhelm hasse in 1897. the original name of the beer was "siglo xx" (20th century) with the double x standing for the number 20, and it commemorated the arrival of that century; the moniker "dos equis" (double x) was originally just a nickname, but it became widely known by said nickname, as a result the "siglo xx" name was dropped in favor of "dos equis" the original version is the dos equis ambar, a vienna-style dark beer. this was cervecería moctezuma's best selling beer in the 1940s and 1950s. demand for the beer has resurged, especially in the united states, where it is now the best-selling imported dark beer. the clear version of this brand is a lager derived from the ambar.
