2,897,480 bbl annual capacity.

According to Reuters: "Backus y Johnston, Peru's largest brewery, signed a four-year, $50 million loan agreement with J.P. Morgan that will restructure the beer maker's liabilities" in April 1996.

My Opinion Of The Beers That I've Tried:
14.5 points overall

• Premium Cristal (bottled)
  Style 14 - German Light Lager
  • 14.5 points - Beer #19-1525, The Inner Label, Honolulu HI, June 27, 1996
    Golden, fizzy. Sweet, malty aroma. Malty-sweet, OK body, some hops late. "The Peruvian Budweiser"...but it has more character than Budweiser. No glass...swigged straight from the bottle. Thanks to Linda Armour of The Inner Label for the beer!
