Advertising campaigns

Launched in 1997, the Jeune Depuis 1903 (Young since 1903) campaign in Quebec emphasized the long-standing tradition behind Molson Export. In 2003, as part of this same campaign, Molson Export celebrated its 100th anniversary.

In 2010, Molson Export created a new brand image that again referenced its history and an advertising campaign that focused on John Molson. A TV spot recounting one of his trans-Atlantic voyages went on air while an integrated multimedia campaign focused on him was presented in the Bell Centre and online.

In 2022 Molson Export has teamed up with the NHL and presented the Draft Viewing party. [3]

For the 2022 Winter Olympics, Molson created a line of maple syrup infused with beer. The Dark Grade syrup was infused with Molson Export. [4]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Beer in Canada</span> Overview of the beer culture in Canada

Beer was introduced to Canada by European settlers in the seventeenth century. The first commercial brewery was La Brasseries du Roy started by New France Intendant Jean Talon, in Québec City in 1668. Many commercial brewers thrived until prohibition in Canada. The provincial and federal governments' attempt to eliminate "intoxicating" beverages led to the closing of nearly three quarters of breweries between 1878 and 1928. It was only in the second half of the twentieth century that a significant number of new breweries opened up. The Canadian beer industry now plays an important role in Canadian identity, although globalization of the brewing industry has seen the major players in Canada acquired by or merged with foreign companies, notably its three largest beer producers: Labatt, Molson and Sleeman. The result is that Moosehead, with an estimated 3.8 percent share of the domestic market in 2016, has become the largest fully Canadian-owned brewer.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">F&M Brewery</span>

StoneHammer Brewing was located in Guelph, Ontario and was a member of the Ontario Craft Brewers Association (OCB). The brewery was established in August 1995 as F&M Breweries by Rich Fortnum, Bruce Fortnum, Antonia Smits and Charles MacLean. They produced StoneHammer Pilsner, MacLean's Pale Ale, and a dry-hopped dark mild sold only in casks to select publicans. During this time, F&M started contract brewing in Ontario for a handful of contracts while under contention under LCBO licensing. Their StoneHammer Pilsner was also invited into the Great British Beer Festival beer competition, into the American jurisdiction. Three years later it was sold to Frank Cerniuk who continued the Stone Hammer (sic) name with an award-winning line of Stone Hammer beers under the company name F&M Brewery. In February 2015, Frank sold the Brewery to Phillip and Lesley Woodhouse who renamed the brewery after its flagship brand. In spring 2018, the company filed for bankruptcy having closed its doors in late April of that year. StoneHammer also produced several contract beers, including the Taste of Ontario Harvest Series for the Neighbourhood Group.
