Introduction: The Molson Coors Brewing Company is a North American brewing company, formed in 2005 by the merger of Molson of Canada, and Coors of the United States. It is the world's seventh largest brewer by volume.
The company's binational nature has caused several sources in both the U.S. and Canada to claim the company is now controlled by interests in the other country.unreliable source?][dead link] While the company is incorporated in the United States, the company is traded on stock exchanges in both countries,and control is equally shared between the Molson and Coors families.The company is headquartered in Denver, Colorado.
On October 9, 2007, SABMiller and Molson Coors Brewing Company announced a joint venture to be known as MillerCoors for their U.S. operations that will market all of their products.

On May 26, 2011 seventh-generation family member Andrew Molson succeeded Pete Coors as acting Chairman of the company.
