Quilmes is a city in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It is the capital of Quilmes Partido (Partido de Quilmes). It is located 16 kilometers away from the federal capital of Argentina, the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. Quilmes is the name of the native American tribe who lived in the area.
The Partido de Quilmes contains various cities such as Quilmes (city), Bernal, Ezpeleta, Solano and others. During the first English invasion in 1806 the English arrived from Montevideo through Quilmes and from there they went to Buenos Aires.
Quilmes is the home of two leading football teams: Quilmes Atlético Club (http://www.cervecero.com.ar/) and Club Atlético Argentino de Quilmes (http://www.argentinodequilmes.es.vg). The first was founded in the 19th century by the English and the second one was founded, later, by Argentines who were not allowed to play for the QAC. They are two of the oldest Argentine football teams.
The city also gives its name to the famous beer Cerveza Quilmes, as this is where it was first brewed.
El punto que se trajo Quilmes de Florencio Varela luego igualar con Defensa y Justicia 1 a 1 no es para despreciar.
Si bien la idea era venirse con los tres, la unidad sirve, ya que el Cervecero venÃa de dos derrotas al hilo y, tras arrancar perdiendo a los 2 minutos de juego y mostrando un rendimiento muy flojo en el primer tiempo, haber podido empatar vino bien para cortar la mala racha.
