From the record
Summary
Status: CLOSED. Incorporated in 1906 and documented by a 1913 Canadian commercial history and surviving archival photographs. Pass 25 corrects the former broad 1906-1936 continuous-company interpretation: a Royal Commission record proves a separate Moose Jaw Brewing Company Limited was incorporated in June 1925; federal brewing directories then list American Brewing Company Limited at Home & 10th Streets in 1932 and Moose Jaw Brewing Company Limited at the same later address in 1934. Exact legal succession from the 1906 Brewing & Malting company to the 1925 company remains PARTIAL / UNRESOLVED and must be tested with corporate, land-title, directory and archival records. [Canada Pass 26] CHECKED 2026-09-24: the label chronology runs Moose Jaw Brewing Company Limited 1925-1929, American Brewing Company Limited 1929-1933, Moose Jaw Brewing Company Limited again 1933-1936 — nothing before 1925, so how the 1906 company reached the 1925 one is still UNKNOWN. MemorySask's own record for this company (memorysask.ca/moose-jaw-brewing-and-malting-co) refuses robots and has no Wayback copy; it needs a browser or a person. The Moose Jaw Public Library archives and the Times-Herald are the next ask.
