“Tilray continues to deliver the benefits of cannabis safely and reliably in unique formats that suit patients’ needs,” said Jim Meiers, president at Tilray Canada. “Our goal is to help provide patients access to the highest-quality medical cannabis products that can improve their quality of life, and also support them with best-in-class service and programs, so they make the choices best suited to their needs.”

Tilray Leverages SweetWater Brewing Co. To Reach US Consumers

The latest product innovation comes on the heels of the expansion of the company’s SweetWater Brewing Company, LLC, into Michigan. SweetWater Brewing teamed up with distributor O&W, Inc to reach beer lovers in the Great Lake State. The product offering includes its flagship 420 Extra Pale Ale, its juicy HAZY IPA, SweetWater Oasis Premium Hard Seltzer, and its recently launched 420 Imperial IPA.

Tilray recently reported its first financial results since the merger with Aphria in May. The report included a full quarter of the old Aphria (through May) and one month of the old Tilray.

Based in New York and Leamington, Ontario, Tilray revealed a fourth-quarter 2021 revenue growth of 25% to $142.2 million from $113.5 million in the prior-year quarter. Net cannabis revenue amounted to $53.7 million, representing a 36% growth.
