History buff? Well read on friend...<\/span>HISTORY<\/span><\/span><\/h1><\/header>

<\/p>\n

It all started back in 1898 when entrepreneur Abraham Kingdon opened the doors to the original Lake of the Woods Brewing Company in downtown Kenora. The brewery closed for a period during prohibition but was soon re-opened by Stanley Drewery in 1927. Unable to compete with the emergence of large national breweries, the brewery closed its doors in 1954… until now.<\/p>\n

PROHIBITION CAUSES

\nCLOSURE OF ORIGINAL BREWERY<\/span><\/span><\/h2>

<\/div>
<\/p>\n

The prohibition<\/b> of alcohol in Canada<\/b> arose in various stages, from local municipal bans in the late 19th century, to provincial bans in the early 20th century, and national prohibition<\/b> (a temporary wartime measure) from 1918 to 1920. Re-opening in 1921, the brewery couldn’t compete with the emerging breweries and had to close its doors.<\/p>\n
