Not really true. The Coors and Molson Families do have decendents from overseas (Don't we all). They still control the company. It is a special exempt company from the normal type public reporting to the SEC.

However, they are on the NYSE and have offices and breweries in the US, so I still consider them an American company.

I am sure GE, GM, Ford and others also have foreign stockholders, but that does not necessarily make them a foreign owned company.

Their partner, SABMiller, is a South African owned company, however, they are still 2 separate companies working together at this time....

However, that is NOT the reason I will still drink Coors....it is about taste and class....

COORS LIGHT. 'Nuff said.

On the same note, I bet a lot of you younger guys do not know that you used to have to give a trucker some cash to bring you some "bootleg" Coors from out west years ago.....it was not even available here in the southeast legally.

It was good then too

Butch had to go to Arizona back in the early 70's to pick up a helicopter for his office. He brought it back on a flat bed trailer. The cockpit was crammed full of COORS.

I thought AB was their parent company? I know Margaritaville owns the rights but I heard AB bottles it and had controlling interest? I could be wrong....(it has happened before).

Your right Landshark is brewed and bottled at the AB plant in Jacksonville.
