Moosehead beer is owned by Moosehead Breweries Limited, which has been owned and operated by the Oland family since its founding in 1867. The ownership has now transitioned to the sixth generation of the Oland family, with Andrew and Patrick Oland as the current majority shareholders and leaders of the company. Moosehead Breweries is the last major Canadian brewery still owned by a Canadian family and remains fiercely independent, headquartered in Saint John, New Brunswick.
