The Edmonton Brewery and Malting Company was not originally the Molson Brewery. The Edmonton Brewery and Malting Company was an independent operation established in the early 20th century. It played a significant role in the local brewing industry and community for many years.
Later, the site where the Edmonton Brewery operated was eventually taken over by Molson, one of Canada’s largest and most well-known breweries. This acquisition was part of Molson’s broader strategy to expand its presence across Canada, leveraging the established facilities and market presence of local breweries like the Edmonton Brewery and Malting Company.
Therefore, while the Edmonton Brewery and Malting Company was not initially the Molson Brewery, it later became part of the Molson Brewing Company through acquisition and consolidation within the brewing industry.
