bottlessmall.jpg Molson Coors Brewing Co. and MillerCoors are being sued by an American Indian tribe for contributing to alcoholism. According to the Reporter-Herald, the Oglala Sioux Tribe of South Dakota wants $500 million in damages from all beer companies connected to their reservation, including Anheuser-Busch, SAB Miller and Pabst Brewing Company. "The lawsuit alleges that the beer makers and stores sold to Pine Ridge's Indian population, knowing they would smuggle the alcohol into the reservation to drink or resell."
