Partly verified

At least one of those three claims rests on a secondary source or an inference, a disagreement between sources is still open, or a split supply has a format that has not been read.

Origin and brewery site verified from the Tesco label. UK abv and the UK importer not established.

Not listed at Morrisons, Asda, Ocado or Sainsbury's in searches on 2026-09-06; the Tesco listing on record is the only one.

The small print on the base of a current can or bottle, giving the producer name and address, would settle this.

In short

Super Bock is imported. The UK product is brewed at Leca do Balio, Matosinhos in Portugal. The brand belongs to Super Bock Group (Super Bock Bebidas S.A.). The label says: "Country of origin: Portugal. Brewer: Super Bock Bebidas S.A., Leca do Balio, Portugal."
