A Montreal Beer Tour

Posted on August 22, 2013 by anuptowngal

I may have mentioned this before, but @WineGuyTO and I love Montreal and try to visit each year. It holds a special spot with us, as it is where he proposed to me!

One of the activities we always do is to visit the Musé des Beaux Arts. Check out the blog post here I did of the Chihuly exhibit which is currently on.

As we never really have a plan (other than eating!) when we visit, this year I decided to have a theme: beer. More specifically, Montréal micro-breweries. We had looked into a food tour, but then decided to do it on our own. We wanted to have time to enjoy the flights. I had compiled a list of microbrews from googling some other blog posts, the food tour offerings and made a google map. We did not get to all of the list, which is fine as it gives us something to do next year!

Here is where we got to, over 3 days:

Les Soeurs Grises (flight)
Dieu du Ciel (flight)
Le Saint-Bock (flight)
Benelux (IPA flight)
Le Cheval Blanc (pints)
Burgundy Lion (pint)

Where we did not get to:

Though I do drink beer, I only tasted the flights. I instead tried the Québec ciders at each place (where I could) as I cannot buy them here in Ontario (BOO!) A highlight was spending the afternoon with @35mmMonkey, Rebecca, @laurendorphin, @pat_wall and friends at Dieu du Ciel!
