The company said it has a long history working closely with Molson Coors and wants them to know they are thinking of them during this difficult time.
"We've been a partner with Miller for over 30 years... there's not a week that goes by that there's not Miller product being printed through this shop." Brew City Brand co-owner George Keppler said. "We were just in total shock [when we heard], everyone here, it was just, it was a strange silence that just went through this company. We were watching the news in disbelief."
