Tally's Take
Why this matters
Manitoba Pass 26 master. Research brewery ID: MB-B0052. Entity type: Historical brewery group / production lineage. Pass 11 corporate-lineage recovery. Archaeological research states Kiewel and Pelissier amalgamated in 1971, with both locations maintained; the St. Boniface plant was the brewing operation and the Fort Rouge Pelissier site functioned as a cash-and-carry beer store. By 1977 the operation was listed as a division of Labatt; St. Boniface brewing had closed by 1976/77.
