Courage Brewery, who were owned by Imperial Tobacco had expanded the Harvester brand by converting 70 sites. Imperial were purchased by Hanson Trust plc in 1986, and Courage was sold as part of Hanson's divestment of Imperial's non tobacco interests, with the company being purchased by Elders Limited, the Australian brewer of Foster's Lager.
