 PROFILE
Scottish & Newcastle serves up Courage by the pint. The UK's largest brewer, and #2 in Europe behind Heineken, it makes the popular beers Courage, John Smith's, Kronenbourg, McEwan's, Newcastle, and Theakston's, among others. (Its brews are sold in about 50 countries.) It also brews licensed beers such as Beck's, Foster's, and Miller. The firm runs about 1,450 tied pubs -- pubs which sell company beers and are limited in what other beers they can offer. (It sold 650 smaller pubs in June 2001; about 70 are still on the block). Scottish & Newcastle also produces malted barley, and distributes wine and spirits. It is selling its Center Parcs and Pontin's resorts in Europe.
