Labatt Brewery has a deep history that all comes back to the exact spot that the brewery is located at now. The history of Labatt runs back as far as 1847. The originally brewery was a log cabin that was burnt down but replaced with a similar building. That building is now at the Fanshawe pioneer village where the employees dress up like they are the original workers. Originally the company could produce a thousand bottles per year. Now they produce a thousand per minute. The most popular beer to leave on the trucks is Budweiser.
