Who owns this brewery?
The archive is still digging. That is a gap in the research, not a finding of independence.

Ownership & corporate history
- Merged into AB Pripp & Lyckholm1927
What the sources say
Resolves held claim HOC-0466 ("HISTORICAL MERGER SUCCESSOR / OWNER"). Gothenburg's two largest breweries — J.W. Lyckholm & Co (founded 1880 by Johan Wilhelm Lyckholm) and Pripps — merged to form AB Pripp & Lyckholm; Swedish Wikipedia dates Lyckholms as part of Pripps from 1927, other accounts complete the amalgamation in 1928 (variance preserved, not resolved). The Almedal plant brewed until 31 December 1975; the 1964 fusion with AB Stockholms Bryggerier into Pripp-Bryggerierna is the successor chain's next link.
Ownership history is kept as dated events, so a change of owner never overwrites the one before it.
