Great beer is the top priority of the Canadian brewery Molson, but the team has set itself a whole series of other goals. As a tribute to founder John Molson, the brewery continues his legacy and is committed not only to producing the finest beers, but also to making the world a better place. Under the motto "The best way to honor history is to make history," the men and women behind Molson contribute to our future every day.
The journey begins in 1786 when John Molson, at the tender age of 18, sets out on the arduous journey from England to Canada. The ship springs a leak and its arrival in the new world is threatened, but it arrives that same year and John establishes the Molson Brewery in his new home. According to the brewery's own information, Molson is now the oldest brewery in North America and Canada's second oldest brewery. The Molson Brewery grows and prospers in the decades that follow and John makes a good name for himself with his beer. But that is not enough for the innovative Englishman. When he discovers in 1821 that Montreal's only hospital has a meager number of just 30 beds, he initiates the construction of a new hospital. Thanks to his determined efforts, the new hospital opens in May of the same year. But John's commitment does not end there. In order to connect the residents of Canada across the country's vast distances, the brewery owner supports the expansion of the railway line. The achievements of the indefatigable John Molson and his descendants also include a contribution to Canadian banking, the introduction of the deposit system, sponsorship of various sports clubs and events and the founding of the Red Leaf Project, which is committed to reforestation and the preservation of Canadian nature.
Despite all of its social commitment, the Molson Brewery has never forgotten one thing: its beer. Over the past two centuries, the company's brewers have worked with discipline and passion to improve the quality and taste of their brewed products, and have received numerous prizes and awards for their efforts over the years. An absolute favourite in the range is the tasty Canadian Lager . This classic impresses with its subtly balanced character and high drinkability. We are impressed by the dedication of the Molson team and are happy to support the brewery in making the world a better place with excellent beer and great commitment.
Cheers!
