Brasserie Racey / de Beauport
Beauport (Québec City), Quebec, Canada · Est. 1810
Tally's Take
Why this matters
Fifty-three years at the Beauport industrial complex, and the middle layer between the Young distillery-brewery and the later Compagnie de brasserie de Beauport. One open question is worth recording rather than resolving: this archive separately holds a John Racey whose installations at Québec were leased by Joseph Knight Boswell in 1842 to establish the Anchor Brewery. Whether that is this Racey operation is not established by anything here, so the archive flags the question and leaves it for someone with the records to answer.
