Where did they claim they "owned" brands"
No parsing of words involved.
The man from Peoria knows what "our" means, as does Webster's Dictionary:
"Our new name reflects on our belief that our brands are some of the best tasting distilled and herbal infused spirits engineered in the market that will capitalize in the alcoholic beverage industry that is expected to exceed $1 trillion and 210 billion liters."

"our: of or relating to us or ourselves or ourself especially as possessors or possessor, agents or agent, or objects or object of an action"

I suppose you could argue that it depends what "is" means, but when you get to that level, you know you're dealing with slippery deceivers - just like Alonzo Pierce and his paid help, in fact.
