Inspired by the medals of the 1979 PanAmerican Games, Medalla Light
was born as a celebration of our athletes’ triumphs.
With San Juan hosting the games for the first time, the 1979 PanAmerican
Games marked Puerto Rico’s history forever.
That year, our delegation won 21 medals that not only made an entire country proud,
but also inspired the name of its beloved national beer.
Great Job, Compatriota
