What Happened
In an interview with BNN Bloomberg's David George-Cosh, Steam Whistle's Andy Burgess said its entry into the cannabis space might involve either the creation of a line of cannabis-infused beverages, or the launch of a Steam Whistle cannabis brand.
Moreover, Steam Whistle's flagship location at the Roundhouse Park building gets over 125,000 visitors each year and the brewer is exploring opportunities to open a pot shop there. Cannabis in Ontario can currently be only purchased online, but brick-and-mortar stores will be available in April. Burgess also told BNN Bloomberg the talks are at an early stage.

Molson Coors Brewing Co (NYSE:TAP) formed a joint venture with Hexo Corp (OTC:HYYDF); Constellation Brands, Inc. (NYSE:STZ) has amassed a big stake in Canopy Growth Corp (NYSE:CGC); And other companies such as Diageo plc (NYSE:DEO) are reportedly also looking for opportunities to get exposure to the cannabis industry.
