Mexico's most pioneering craft brewery, founded in 2002 in Mexicali by José Iturriaga. Named after the Cucapá indigenous people of Baja California. Cucapá was brewing American-inspired craft beers in Mexico before there was a Mexican craft scene — their English-style ales and hoppy lagers were revelatory in a country that had known only Corona and Modelo. Considered the founding brewery of Mexico's craft beer revolution.
