Canadians Not Buying Molson-Coors Beer

What was billed last year as a match made in heaven has had a rocky start -- and the once mighty Canadian operations are getting blamed for most of the turmoil.

Yesterday the company said poor sales -- particularly in Canada and Europe -- and hefty expenses related to the Feb. 11 Molson-Adolph Coors merger resulted in a loss of nearly $50-million (U.S.) from January to March. Excluding those charges, it still would have lost more than $5-million.
