List of Molson Coors brands

Molson Coors Brewing Company was created by the merger of two of North America's largest breweries: Molson of Canada, and Coors of the United States, on February 9, 2005. Coors is responsible for over twenty different brands of beer in North America and the UK.^[1] The main brands are Coors and Killian's. Molson brands include Carling Black Label and Molson Canadian.

Coors

• Coors, the "Banquet Beer", also known as "Coors Original", a 5% ABV pale lager. This is the oldest brand in the Coors portfolio, first brewed in 1874,^[2] and has been given awards at World's Columbian Exposition in 1893, and at the Great American Beer Festival in 2004.^[2]
• Coors Light, the "Silver Bullet", a 4.2% ABV beer first brewed in 1978 as a low calorie beer. It is Coors' top selling brand, and the second-best selling beer ^[3] in the United States, passing Budweiser in 2011.^[4] The beer is also quite popular in Ireland, where it is available at most bars nationwide and is brewed and distributed by Heineken. It has won several medals for "American-Style Light Beer" at the Great American Beer Festival,^[5] and was the official beer sponsor of the NFL and the NFL Network until 2009.^[6] In 2006, a "frost brew liner", referring to the "Frost Brewed" branding, was introduced. Coors Light bottles and cans feature a cold temperature sensitive label using Chromazone ink. When the mountains on the label turn blue, the beer is at optimal drinking temperature. In 2011, it became the Official Beer of the National Hockey League, in a deal worth $400 million over seven years. ^[7]
• Killian's Irish Red^[8] a 4.9% ABV dark lager. Coors acquired the rights to brew and market the brand in America from France's Pelforth Brewery in 1981. It was then reformulated to a Vienna lager from the original Irish red ale recipe created at Lett's Brewery in Enniscorthy, Ireland, in 1864.
• Extra Gold is 5.0% ABV American lager. Originally marketed as Coors Extra Gold, it has a deeper color and fuller flavor than Coors, which the company claims comes from a slow brewing process.
• Blue Moon (Witbier)- a Belgian style wheat ale, created in 1995. 5.4% ABV. (made under Blue Moon Brewing Company label)
• Keystone is a 4.8% ABV pale lager introduced in 1989. The current slogan is "Always Smooth."

• Keystone Light is a 4.2% ABV pale lager introduced in 1989. Packaged in "specially lined cans" intended to reduce metallic taste. The can is blue and silver and is narrower than a regular 12 ounce can of beer. An advertising campaign starring comedian Bard King claimed that Keystone Light relieved "Bitter Beer Face." The current advertising slogan is "Always Smooth, Even When You're Not."^[9]
• Keystone Ice is packaged in black and silver cans. Keystone Ice is 5.9% ABV and has 143 calories.
