San Miguel Corp. has unveiled a museum at its historic Polo Brewery in Valenzuela City, celebrating 135 years of brewing history and corporate legacy. The museum features antique brewing equipment, classic labels, archival documents, and the 1890 Royal Patent granting founder Don Enrique Maria Barretto de Ycaza exclusive rights to brew beer in Manila.
SMC leaders say the museum honors generations of employees and showcases the company’s growth from a single brewery to a diversified conglomerate. While currently open only to employees and special guests, the museum highlights how tradition, innovation, and workforce excellence fueled San Miguel’s century-long success.
