- Notes
- Formerly the Kuntz Brewery started by David Kuntz in the 1830s. The business was called Spring Brewery because it used water from a spring on the property. In the early 1870s, his son Louis took over, renaming it L. Kuntz’s Park Brewery. After 1929 it was sold and became Carling-Kuntz Brewery until approximately 1940 when the Kuntz name was dropped. In 1977 Carling Brewery was purchased by Labatt Breweries of London, but the Waterloo plant was closed by 1993 and all the buildings on the site have been demolished.
