Ownership & corporate history
- Founded by Matt ToniDate unknown
What the sources say
Resolves held claim HOC-0310 ("undefined"). Co-founded with Derek Moe after a 2012 Whisky Fest trip; President. No founding date asserted — the sources date the idea, not the company. The claim's 'local owners/investors' collective stays unnamed: the brewery states 100% local ownership with local partners, investors and Community Futures Grande Prairie, and an unnamed collective is an honest UNKNOWN, not an owner event.
