Las Brasseurs G.M.T (Microbrewery)
McAuslans - 4850 St. Amboise St. Bureau 100; (514)939-3060
Brewpub Microbrewery with "the most exciting new ales in
Canada". Tours. "St. Ambroise was always one of my favourites
in the early days. It's brewed by the MacAuslan brewery. It is
now joined by St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout, Griffon Extra Pale Ale
and Griffon Brown Ale. These are, respectively, fine examples
of amber ale, oatmeal stout, lightly flavored pale ale and American
brown ale. The Griffon pale is not hoppy enough for my tastes
and may well have been made with some corn."
Metro: Take subway to St. Henri stop. Go West on St. Jacques St.
South on St. Marguerite St, through a short tunnel. Right onto
St. Ambroise St., proceed for three blocks. A Pugsley-inspired
Ringwood brewer. I think they give tours.
