History

In 1960 a merger between Scottish Brewers Ltd, consisting of Youngers and McEwan breweries, and Newcastle Breweries formed Scottish and Newcastle. Continued expansion, by buying smaller breweries such as Theakstons moved Scottish & Newcastle to be a major national player. In 1995 it purchased Courage from the Australian brewers Fosters and became Scottish Courage.
