Great Western Brewing

Great Western Brewing Company Limited is Saskatchewan owned and operated and distributes product to western provinces from Manitoba to British Columbia.The brewery was built in Saskatoon in 1927 and operated under the name Hub City Brewing Company, becoming the Western Canada Brewing Company in 1930 and then Drewerys Limited in 1932. It was acquired by OKeefe Brewing in 1956 and remained so until 1989 when OKeefe amalgamated with Molson Brewing Company. The intended closure of the facility created an opportunity for employees. They pooled their resources and on March 26, 1990 launched the Great Western Brewing Company.
