skol

     

Skol is an international beer bran. Allied Breweries of the UK, Labatt of Canada, Pripp-Bryggerierna of Sweden and Unibra of Belgium formed a new company called Skol International in 1964. Its aim was the creation of a world-wide beer brand, Skol lager, which could be licensed, manufactured and marketed across the world. Since then participation in the company has changed.
