MILWAUKEE - Leinenkugel's Chippewa Falls Brewery and 10th Street Brewery in Milwaukee will be shutting down.

"While never easy, these choices are made with much thought and consideration to position Molson Coors for continued success in Wisconsin and beyond," said Molson Coors Chief Supply Chain Officer Brian Erhardt.
