Molson

Montreal beer company

Molson is a Canadian brewing company and its beer brands, particularly Molson Canadian.

Founded in Montreal in 1786, it's one of North America's oldest breweries.

The name functions as shorthand for the beer itself: Grab me a Molson from the fridge.

Molson merged with Coors in 2005 to form Molson Coors.
