MillerCoors CEO on potential small brewer acquisitions: “We’re in dialogue with lots of companies”
WSJ: You recently bought a minority stake in Terrapin, a small brewery in Georgia. Besides money, what can you offer small brewers? Are you going to buy more of them?
Mr. Long: We can help them get distribution faster. We bring an enormous amount of assets in brewing processes, technology, procurement and back office that small companies don’t have. We’re in dialogue with lots of companies. Those things have to work just right for them and have to be comfortable for everyone.

Breweries: MillerCoors, Tenth and Blake Beer Co.
“There’s a new Miller Lite can coming out in the late spring. It’s a taste-flow can that allows consumers to put a second opening in the can and the smooth flow rate increases dramatically. Young people really like it. ”
From the article. It tastes better when you shotgun it. Makes sense.
Maybe all of my favorite craft brewers will “man up” and FINALLY be triple hops brewed.
