My fave has been the IPA de Nord Est and it has been a bit tough to find in the wild but they had a strong supply. So I picked up a case of 12. They had some new beers to taste. Un ours amiable which was on special which was well balanced and nice. Also le refuge which was a nice full bodied coffee stout! Very tasty as well. The gift shop is well stacked and you can also fill growlers and crowlers if you have an evening party to drink the hobo bottle at. Otherwise the cans do a great job. These guys are brewing up some delicious brown suds. If beer is your calling, I recommend the drive up to Blainville to give them a check out. You should not be disappointed. I will be back to load up.

STILL ONE OF MY FAVORITE BREWERY IN QUEBEC!…read more Dieu du Ciel has been one of my favorite craft brewery for years, and we were glad to have to chance to be there in person during this trip. It's like "dream comes true" to us! :) We had a few flights, and beer was awesome as expected. The pleasant surprise though, is that they also have a relatively long list of rare bottles on their menu. We tried the 2022 L'Exorciste and we absolutely love it! Their patio is spacious with a chill atmosphere - perfect place to hang out with a few friends on warm and sunny days! Food quality is good - I'd say it's slightly above average "pub food" (hence, a solid 3.5 stars). Factoring in the 5-star rating for the beer, that's why I'd give them a 4-star overall. As you'd expect, we bought a full box of beers (including a few bottles of L'Exorciste) before we left. I'll definitely come back when I visit the area again in the future!

Safe choice, easy in and out for a craft beer and a slice of cheese…read more It can get pricy, because it's alcohol and hand portion cheese. The thing I liked was that since it's mostly all from around the province. It makes us consider going to the brewery if the beer was good. But I think it was it's limitation for me. My BF was hesitating between 2 beer and I told him, take option 2, option 1 is from the ruisseau noir in Terrebonne, we could go directly. Going on site to enjoy the product for me is part of the fun. So that's why I can't fully go 5 stars. But I can understand the need and that's why I can't knock it. Ask the staff for recommendations, they know their stuff.

They have a great beer selection and we usually get the tasting plateau to the able to try as many beers as we can. Beers range from classics to very unique flavours! The restaurant also sells beers to go so be sure to get a smoothie beer when they're in stock. Perfect summer beer. Sweeter than most, very fruity, unique flavour. Also you must try the churros for dessert! The texture is quite different from what you'd be used to but they're amazing. They're decadent and soft to the point that you have to eat them with a fork.

Ma 1ere visite était durant le retour post covid 2021, et à ce moment là, c'était le chaos partout donc j'ai préféré donner une chance. J'y suis donc retourné avec ma puce et ma conjointe. De base, le balthazar n'est pas pour les enfants, c'est un bar 18+. Mais l'été grâce à la terasse, ils sont admis. Cependant, ne cherche pas de repas ou combo/deal enfant. Tout de même, un drink fait maison jus d'orange, mangue et grenadine que ma petite a adoré. En gros, vous pouvez avoir pas mal n'importe quoi en virgin donc si vous ne voulez pas d'alcool ou avez des enfants, les possibilité sont là. Mais il n'y a pas de soda. Comme c'est un pub, il y a beaucoup de sélection de microbrasserie et à moins que je me trompe, se sont tous des sélections local du Québec! Côté nourriture, c'est le typique pub donc salade, burger, poutine, nachos, etc. Les choix sont quand même la, plusieurs type de chacun de ceux là et plusieurs unique. J'ai essayé le burger balt avec un poutine, ma conjointe un burger fait de bison avec poution et ma petite le Mac (Mac n cheese). Tout était vraiment bon. Le Mac était très surprenant d'ailleurs.

Their stock varies from time to time which is nice, and the staff is very helpful with recommendations, product reviews and all. However, I have to point out that the last 2-3 times I've been, their selection has greatly diminished. They used to have a ton of new stuff everytime including some I had never seen before. But now, they seem to only carry some more basic stuff like Brasseurs de Montréal, Dieu du Ciel, Brasseurs de Charlevoix on a consistent basis. Not that those aren't good, but those are easier to find, almost everywhere. I hope it's not a sign that their business is not going well. I really like it. Would have been a 5* if not for my last few visits.

I seems to go a lot at different 3 brasseurs these days even if it's far from my first choice. But,…read morestill unbiace review. To begin, the service. We went a Saturday night near 18h30. The place was half empty (strange for a big sunny day during summer but it was like that everywhere). The service was exactly like it always been, very slow. I wasn't the only one wondering where it was. The first time we saw him was for the drink, about 15 min after sitting. He came back about 15 minutes later with the drinks and we ordered a nacho to share among us. Once, the nacho arrived, we ate it. And then waited another 15 minutes for someone to clean the table. We haven't ordered the main course yet. Took another 10 min to order. And once we ate, we didn't see it at all. We asked for the bill when he came back about 30 min after we finished eating. So yeah, service is bad as usual. I remember that in the past, to get good service, we had to sit at the bar. As for the food. The food here is ok. If you like flamekeuche you'll probably like it. I ordered a 3b burge which is a burger with meat cooked with beer sauce. It wasn't bad, could taste the beer in the beef which is good. It was properly cooked and garnish. I'm just unsure for the price tag on it versus all offering near. A friend took the double smash burger. There was one big meat party, nearly as big as mine. But we could see the sauce oozing which is nice. She did like it, but it wasn't a smash. Compared to the smash I had at another location (was a real smash but looked nothing lime what she got), this was a better burger for sure. It did give me the idea to order it from here. The ambiance is typical of a sports bar pub restaurant. Lots of tv, when there's an event you got the audio. It is a nice place to lounge.

The one I've been to being in Rosemont Chicago. Tried both the blonde and blanche beers, and I definitely preferred the blanche. Also had several food dishes with my family. Multiple pizzas like the Roma and Caprini which were thin crust. Was surprised to find out that the regular "authentic" poutine was vegetarian which made me question the kind of gravy that was used. My cousin had the fish and chips which looked to be mostly batter. Even the fries were battered which was a surprise given the ones in the poutine were not. My aunt had the poke which had a good portion. Our waitress was nice. The service staff wore short shorts on a cold fall day which seemed unnecessary. There was a good crowd of families for a Sunday afternoon. They showed a Toronto-Philly NHL game but no NFL which was surprising even though we were in French Canada.
