One of the original copper brewing kettles from the brewery's 1873 founding, outside the MillerCoors Brewery -- the world's largest single brewing operation and one of the Denver area's perpetually popular tourist attractions, in Golden, Colorado. The kettle is a favorite rendezvous and photo-taking spot for visitors. Following mergers in the early 2000s, operations of the former Coors Brewing Company, begun by German immigrants Adolph Coors and Joseph Schueler, are now part of joint ventures with the multinational SABMiller brewer and Canada's Molson Brewing Company.
