Molson Coors has announced plans to shut down Sharp’s Brewery in Rock, Cornwall, by the end of 2026, putting around 50 jobs at risk. The US-based company, which acquired the site in 2011, cited financial unsustainability as the reason. The closure is part of broader restructuring affecting up to 200 positions across its UK and Ireland operations.
St Austell Brewery is marking its 175th anniversary with a limited edition cask ale range in 2026, reviving historic recipes from its archives. The collection includes classics like Admiral's Ale and Trelawny, alongside a new beer named 1851. These ales will be available in the brewery's pubs and through wholesale customers.
