“Molson Coors has a strong and vibrant brand portfolio with a significant following in Australia, a deep history in the USA and is a truly global business,” Mr Hoedemaker said.
“The decision by Molson Coors to partner with Good Drinks Australia is a further vote in confidence in our national sales and marketing team and our capabilities to grow brands in the Australian beer market.”

The new brands are not expected to compete with GDA’s existing portfolio or interfere with its current production capacity.
The Molson Coors brands will be manufactured by Coopers Premium Beverages, with some brands being imported.
