Moosehead
Moosehead traces its origins to 1867, when Susannah Oland began brewing commercially in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. After the Halifax explosion the family moved to Saint John, New Brunswick, and in 1928 took over the larger brewery on the site still in use today. The Moosehead name first appeared on a pale ale in 1933 and became the company name in 1947. Now led by the sixth generation of the Oland family, the firm describes itself as the last major brewery in Canadian ownership. Golden lagers dominate the range; a small-batch brewhouse with a taproom was added beside the main plant in 2018.
