Tennent's Brewery

Tennent's Brewery's history dates back to 1556, when Robert Tennent began brewing in Glasgow, making it the oldest business still operating in Scotland. The commercial brewery was established in 1740, and by the mid-19th century, it was the world's largest exporter of bottled beer. In the 1880s, Hugh Tennent developed and launched what is considered the UK's first lager, and the brewery has continued to innovate, introducing the first canned lager in 1935. 

Introduction of lager (1885): Hugh Tennent, a descendant of the founders, introduced a lighter, sparkling German-style lager after traveling to Bavaria. The brewery began producing Tennent's Lager in 1885, a brew that has since become a Scottish icon. 

Modern innovations: The company was a pioneer in packaging, launching the first draught lager in 1924, the first canned lager in 1935, and the first keg lager in 1963. 

Changes in ownership: The company was acquired by Charrington United Breweries in 1963, became part of Interbrew (now AB InBev) in 2000, and was sold to the Dublin-based drinks group C&C Group (owners of Magners cider) in 2009, which is the current owner.
