The Molson Coors Brewing Company is a multinational 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.

While the company is incorporated in the United States, it is traded on stock exchanges in both the United States and Canada, and control is equally shared between the Molson and Coors families. The company is headquartered at the 54-story 1,372,179-square-foot (127,479.6 m2)1801 California Street (CenturyLink Tower) in Denver, Colorado, with 67,000-square-foot (6,200 m2) office areas, which are located on the 45th, 46th and part of the 47th floors in the tower.

Molson Coors expanded significantly after the merger of Anheuser-Busch InBev and SABMiller in October 2016. This was achieved because during the plans for the merger, SABMiller had agreed to divest itself of the Miller brands by selling its stake in MillerCoors to Molson Coors.

On 9 October 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.MillerCoors is headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

On 2 February 2011, the company purchased Sharp's Brewery of Cornwall in England for around £20 million.

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

In early 2012 the company expanded into the Central and Eastern Europe markets by acquiring the region's market-leading brewery StarBev from CVC Capital Partners.

In September 2014, it was revealed in the media that the firm was in talks to acquire Heineken’s operations in the Czech Republic.
