Crown Imports, which brings us La Cerveza mas Fina, announced that Corona Extra and Corona Light will start shipping in 24-ounce can packages.

The move comes as single-serve beer sales reached $3.2 billion in the industry.

“Our consumer research indicates these consumers see Corona as a reward. Our 24-ounce cans offer a new trade-up option for drinkers looking for a premium beer experience,” said Jim Sabia, executive vice president of marketing for Crown.
