In tandem with the acquisition, Molson Coors has established Coors Spirits Co., an expansion of its existing spirits business, which will house Blue Run, Five Trail Blended American Whiskey, Barmen 1873 Bourbon and future innovation. This acquisition will more than double the size of Molson Coors\u2019 spirits team, further supporting the company\u2019s premiumization strategy.<\/p>\n<p>\nMolson Coors entered the whiskey space with the 2021 launch of Five Trail Blended American Whiskey (which won double gold at the 2022 San Francisco World Spirits Competition) and the 2022 introduction of Barmen 1873 Bourbon.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cMolson Coors has been on a journey to broaden beyond our beer roots and build powerful brands in growing categories, and Blue Run joining us is an exciting next step as we establish Coors Spirits Co.,\u201d Molson Coors\u2019 Chief Commercial Officer Michelle St. Jacques said. \u201cBlue Run has accomplished in three years what many brands hope to do in a generation and has done it at the luxury end of the whiskey category. Importantly, we are committed to maintaining Blue Run\u2019s well-known quality, design and innovation as we continue to grow our spirits portfolio.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nCurrently available in 31 states, Blue Run, with its trademark butterfly medallion on the bottle, can be found at retail and on-premise accounts in every region of the U.S and online. In March 2023, Blue Run announced plans to build a distillery in Kentucky. Those plans will continue as part of the Molson Coors family. In addition, Blue Run has three new whiskies slated for late summer\/fall release.<\/p>\n<p>\nBlue Run\u2019s founders \u2013 Mike Montgomery, Tim Sparapani, Jesse McKnight and Andy Brown \u2013 will all remain with the brand. Montgomery will take on an expanded role with Molson Coors as its vice president of Coors Spirits Co. Bourbon Hall of Famer Jim Rutledge will continue to serve as Blue Run\u2019s distillery consultant and liquid advisor and recognized, whiskey community rising star Shaylyn Gammon will serve as whiskey curator for Coors Spirits Co. David Coors will continue to lead Molson Coors\u2019 full-strength spirits strategy and business development as executive chair of Coors Spirits Co.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cSince launching Blue Run, we have always strived to do things a little differently to truly embrace today\u2019s younger, more diverse generation of whiskey drinkers,\u201d Montgomery said. \u201cWe are humbled by how the whiskey community has embraced our vision and that Molson Coors wants to join and support us in this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBlue Run was represented by Samos Capital of Southlake, TX in the transaction and is legally represented by Foley and Lardner LLP of Milwaukee and Kaplan, Johnson, Abate and Bird LLP of Louisville, in addition to being supported by Joseph Goode and Cody Matthews of Truist Bank of Charlotte, NC.
