...beer sold in California, the nation's biggest beer-drinking state, and more than two-thirds of all beer drunk in Oklahoma. Altogether, the company produced eleven million 31-gal. barrels last year, making Coors the nation's fourth largest brewer (after Anheuser-Busch, Jos. Schlitz and Pabst), with sales of $440 million, up from ninth place a decade...
