From the record
Summary
Status: CLOSED. Historical Valdez brewery explicitly listed in the 1915-16 Alaska-Yukon Gazetteer and Business Directory with A.J. Wendler as president-manager; employee directory entries independently identify a bottler working for the company. This contradicts broad internet lists that end the Valdez brewery lineage around 1910. Relationship to the earlier Valdez Brewing Co. is preserved as PARTIAL rather than silently merged.
