RateBeer Brew Tour Guide's Comments
Can’t make it out to the Chambly mecca? Well then "fourquet"! You can now find the same great food and beer in the heart of Montreal at the Palais des Congrès. Opened in January 2005, all this has been made possible by Chambly’s owner, Richard Racine. You will find the same time-period dress and oddly-sized Sherwood Forest chairs as at the original location. The Niveau 100 area is rather like a European airport but --- Hey, they’ve brought this gem downtown!

Alesome selection of Unibroue, including quite a few on tap. Lots of hard to find bottles as well. Atmosphere is almost medieval with echoing ceilings and huge unibroue graphics. Pretty nice place overall.

Visited to sit at the bar after walking down the hill from Dieu du Ciel. Had Raftman, Blanche de Chambly, U Pilsener, Maudite, and Chambly Noire on tap, along with several other Unibroues in bottles. Didn’t have the food, but it looked delicious having peeked over at a couple’s plates across from the bar. Really nice place, but a tad strange for some reason- just don’t associate a restaurant with high ceilings with the beer environment, but it can easily be overlooked considering their selection of Unibroue.

We went here for lunch midweek. Mostly business persons as clientele. Great selection of Unibroue beers in bottle and tap. The lunch menu was a bit expensive but delicious. I’m not sure how the nightlife is here but just having all the Unibroue in one place is unique.

Visited in April last year on an extremely unbusy weekend night, this huge high-ceiling room is full of neat thick wooden tables with beer-related items on display under various glass tabletops. A tad pricey, the food was nevertheless delicious (lovely salmon) and the appetizer was unique with its various game slices. Brews included local favourites for cheap, by bottle or by glass. Service was fair and attentive. A nice experience, if mildly strange.

Ma raison principale d’aller là c’était pour boire l’Unibroue 15, bien sûr j’ai mangé aussi (mon diner). C’est dure de le comparer avec l’original à Chambly, la sensassion de celui du Palais est plutôt moderne, car tu es entouré de grate-ciel. Mais quand tu commence à boire et manger, cette sensassion disparait vite, même je dirais que tu l’oublis quand tu es avec des gens d’affaires.

A blanche de chambly 750 is rediculously cheap. Food is fabulous, I opted for roast duck in anise sauce, my gf had salmon. The table d’hote is a great deal, including a piping hot harvest vegetable soup, and an orgasmic sugar pie for dessert. Restaurant was essentially empty when we were there on a Saturday night which was both perfect and unnerving at the same time. Also has a selction of Quebec ciders, some of which are available by the glass for dessert. Fabulous.

U, Blanche de Chambly, Raftman, La Maudite and the current Ephemere on tap. All of the current bottles are available --- as its the only restaurant in MTL allowed to serve their 750ml bottles. The same fine foods mixed of beer and the local gastronomy. I’m in micro-heaven and haven’t even left MTL... should have made this a RBSG stop? I only had a quick Raftman on my first stop. Later that day I convinced my fellow staff to have supper there. I ordered the pork loin in a La Maudite and muchroom sauce; french oinion soup and a poorman’s pudding for dessert ($26.95). It was all very good but a tad warm instead of HOT! Yah --- warm French onion soup? The pitcher of La Maudite was superb. My in-beer-experienced colleagues’ even said the 750ml of La Terrible and the pitcher of La Maudite was likely the best part of the soirée.
