5 Rabbit Brewery, also called 5 Rabbit Cerveceria, was founded in Chicago, Illinois, in 201 by current CEO Andres Araya. The company wanted to make a brewery in America, but with a Mexican flavor. The name comes from a historical myth regarding the 400 rabbit children of the maguey plant, from which number 5 Rabbit was considered to be the leader.
The brewery produces a wide variety of beers, including one made from grasshoppers. Other beers include 5 Vulture, 5 Lizard, Huitzi (pronounced Wheat see), and Vida Y Muerte (Life and Death).
In June of 2015, the company announced that it would pull all of its products from Trump hotels and casinos and would no longer do business with his companies due to disparaging statements made by Donald Trump regarding Mexicans. The beer pulled from these locations was relabeled “Chinga Tu Pelo” (F-your hair). All Chinga Tu Pelo beers were purchased by Gino’s East.
