    The Company is the owner of some of the world’s leading brands in the beer industry. As a result, brands are expected to generate positive cash flows for as long as the Company owns the brands and accordingly have been assigned indefinite lives. The most representative brands that have been registered as result of fair value determination of past acquisitions are
    Quilmes
    in Argentina,
    Pilsen
    in Paraguay and Bolivia and
    Presidente
    and
    Presidente Light
    in Dominican Republic.
     
    The carrying value of intangible assets with indefinite useful lives classified as brands was allocated to the following CGU:
