Mützig is a beer brand owned by Heineken and its subsidiaries, and was originally brewed in 1810 by Brasserie Mutzig [fr] of Alsace, France.

It has a full-bodied taste and distinctive packaging, and is the most successful premium, locally brewed beer in Central Africa.

The spelling of the name was Germanicized with an umlaut for marketing reasons, and Mützig was launched in Africa in 1987 to satisfy the needs of the consumers with a passion for a stronger, yet more refined and bitter tasting beer.

[12] In Cameroon the beer is produced by Brasseries du Cameroun (Cameroonian Breweries), owned by the French company Castel.

[13] From late 2013 the advertising for Heineken International's Africa brands Mützig and Gulder were handled by M. & C. Saatchi Abel.
