Dos Equis Revives ‘Most Interesting Man’ Ads as Beer Sales Struggle

Dos Equis revives iconic campaign featuring Jonathan Goldsmith to combat an 8% sales decline in 2025 amid industry-wide beer consumption drops.

  • Today , Dos Equis announced Jonathan Goldsmith returns as The Most Interesting Man with a 60-second ad debuting Jan. 19 during the College Football National Playoff in Miami.
  • Heineken's US retail sales fell 9% last year while Dos Equis's full-year 2025 retail sales dropped 8%, worse than competitors, and earlier this month CEO Dolf van den Brink stepped down amid slowing beer sales.
  • Beginning on Jan. 8, Dos Equis ran unbranded teaser videos showing The Least Most Interesting Man living a boring life before a long-form spot reveals his amnesia and comeback after finding a Dos Equis in his fridge.
  • Research found 83% wanted the campaign back and 97% brand recall, while Alison Payne said the relaunch could be a 'huge growth engine' for Dos Equis after the original tripled its size.
  • For the rest of 2026 and beyond, The Most Interesting Man in the World will appear in a new ad on Jan. 25, build Instagram @DosEquis presence, and headline sailgate activation near Miami.
