Cerveceria Costa Rica is a brewery in San José, Costa Rica, known as the home of Imperial.
Florida Ice & Farm Co. started in 1908 in La Florida de Siquirres, Costa Rica. It was started by the Lindo Morales brothers. At first, the company used to make ice for the banana ships that would come to Limon. In 1912, the Lindo Brothers bought the Cerveceria y refresqueria Traube, which had been started by Jose Traube, in Cartago. From then on, FIFCO's main business went from producing ice, to producing beverages, and through its main operation, it would be later known as Cerveceria Costa Rica.
