Tilray Brands is expanding its footprint in alcoholic and cannabis beverages, buying up brands from Molson Coors and Anheuser-Busch as legal restrictions hamper the marijuana industry. The major cannabis company announced Friday it will acquire the remaining 57.5% equity ownership of cannabis-infused drinks maker Truss Beverage from Molson Coors Canada. Tilray announced earlier this month that it would acquire eight beer and beverage brands from Anheuser-Busch for $85 million. The company also specializes in beverage and wellness products, and has become the fifth largest craft beer company in the U.S. Blair MacNeil, the president of Tilray Canada, said the acquisition will "further diversify our product offerings while broadening our consumer reach."
