From the record
Summary
Status: CLOSED. Ownership as recorded: UNKNOWN — no operator, company or ownership-at-closure identified. Address: West Lynne, Manitoba — exact brewery site/address unresolved. A Manitoba Historical Society industrial-history compilation states that early West Lynne had six hotels and a brewery, where beer could be purchased by the pail. The reviewed source does not identify the brewery's business name, owner/brewer, operating dates or products, so all remain UNKNOWN rather than inferred. [Canada Pass 110] CHECKED 2026-09-24: the MHS Historic Sites page for the West Lynne town site does not mention the brewery; name, brewer and dates remain UNKNOWN.

Ownership & corporate history
- Owned by George Raymond1883
Partly settledCurrent evidence supports this, but the record is not fully resolved.
What the sources say
Centennial history explicitly names George Raymond at the West Lynne Brewery and cites the West Lynne and Southern Manitoba Times, 22-Nov-1883. This proves a historical operational/person connection, not founder status or legal title. Source: SRC-CA-1916; SRC-CA-1917
Ownership history is kept as dated events, so a change of owner never overwrites the one before it.
