ambiance is ok if you like a quiet place where you are left alone. service is great because there’s never that many people inside, especially downstairs. beer is worse than horrible, except for the blackout stout. the IPA deserves to be poured down the sewers, and the chocolate stout tastes like poisoned water. if you are a concordia student who like molson and labatt, this is the place for you! if you are a beer geek, go elsewhere.

Went late ona Saturday night. Extremely hot and noisy. Sat outside on the patio and enjoyed an IPA.

Nice looking bar, a little small, I was glad that i got there and it wasn’t too busy. The beers were pretty pedestrian for the Montreal brewpub scene. I wanted to try lots of their beers but i wont only able to buy half pints which wasnt bad, but i dont think i deserved the "are you nuts?" look when i asked about sampler size glasses so i could try all their beers.

Stopped by this place while we were simply looking for a place for a quick one. Sort of a shitty, run down appearance inside. Lots of styles of beer on tap, but the three beers I had were uniformly poor. There is a lot of stuff up on their board that isn’t available... which always annoys the hell out of me. An oxidized IPA, an underattenuated Belgian ale and a watery scotch ale. Live music out front with a quieter back room. It’s not really a bad place to hang out, but I certainly wouldn’t go in looking for quality brew.

Juste à côté du Centre Bell, endroit agréable, très anglophone mais je me suis toujours fait servir en français, avec un accent cassé mais respectueux et apprécié. Avant un spectacle ou une partie de hockey, j’aime bien y aller parce que c’est sympathique et leurs bières plutôt médiocres sont tout de même meilleures (et moins chères!) que la Molson Ex du Centre Bell. "J’aimerais avoir la bière fumée que vous annoncez, s.v.p.". "Désolé il n’en reste plus..." "J’aimerais votre Imperial stout, alors..." "Il n’y en a plus..." "Avez-vous une bière plus forte en alcool?" "Non, mais nous avons une Scotch Ale..." "D’accord, je vais prendre la Scotch Ale, s.v.p...." Et ce fut la plus pire Scotch Ale que j’ai jamais bue. Je vais y retourner quand même...

Had a great time here while in Montreal. This place is huge! It starts out looking like a basement at your friends house, then winds up three more levels high with different music going and bars on each floor. Solid selection of beers, but nothing amazing. Very much for the college crowd.

Visited very late on a Saturday night last May, this old converted house has tons of little rooms in a maze-like atmosphere of funky live music and dark Christmas lights strung about. Beer selection is fair, maybe 6 or 7 of their own. Service was fair, checking on us a couple times. Didn’t try the food. Overall, cool for a late night bar.

Went there with a friend. We got a seat out on the patio and the sun was shining :) It is very nice to relax out there and watch the people go by. We weren’t sure what beer to order so the waitress brought us tasters (50 ml. glasses) of all the beers we wanted to try, free of charge. I had the Blackout Stout wich was quite nice. When it started raining we ran inside and I have to say I liked the patio better than the inside. The inside was quite dark but the waitresses made up for it with their smiley faces :)

One thing is sure you will not return to this place for its food. The food is average bar food in bad form but as for the ambiance, location, people, and service this place is awesome. The beer like others have said are just average but well worth trying.

Not the best I saw in Montreal, but not bad. Lots of loud and live music in the heart of Montreal night-life, this one only produced enough quality beer to keep the attendees away from Molson. Decent beer, decent prices, but nothing great. I will skip this one and head to Dieu du Ciel next time I’m in Montreal.
