- Narrative
- In 1893, Victoria Brewing and Ice merged with the Phoenix Brewery to form the Victoria-Phoenix Brewing Company Limited. The trustees were now Joseph Loewen, William Parsons Sayward, Charles Gowen, William Wilson, and Frank Stillman Barnard. The two companies combined made it possible to compete with the many other breweries that had sprung up, mainly the aggressive Union Brewery. The newly formed company used the new building on Government Street and slowly phased out the Phoenix facility that stood at Yates and Blanshard. The original VB building was finally torn down in 1982.
