Charlevoix is rated as the 54th best brewery in the world according to Ratebeer, with many of the regular line up beers in the top 25 for style, but to each his own. The Milk Stout on tap is pretty insane.

As to the new place we have been dealing they said they it did a soft opening this week. There is another place that is ordering DDC’s Rosee, Corne du Diable and Peche that opens in July.

Just in the last month in Three Bears and couple other places the scene in Edmonton has started busting.

Uhm... so that’s the draught list for Underground? Anyone else thinking what I’m thinking?

That is a greatly improved beer list than what they showed last winter. The rep for La Trappe and Fullers has been bringing some crazy stuff not listed above where is that in the province?

So, Underground is now set for a November opening date.....and just around the corner, in the old Steak Loft building, Craft Beer Market will be opening. Hopefully the tap selections will differ enough to make both places viable!!

Hey folks, I’m one of the owners of One One Eight, a new bar and eatery opening on 118 Street and Jasper Ave in a couple weeks.

I stumbled across this forum trying to figure out what beers we should have on tap and what beers we should carry. I see that you are pretty passionate and knowledgeable about craft beer, so if you have any suggestions, I’d love to hear them.

We only have 8 tap lines, so we won’t be able to match the selection that Underground and Craft will have, but we’re hoping to rotate them fairly regularly in addition to carrying a wide variety of bottles.

I’ll keep checking this forum, or you can email me at akash@oneoneeight.ca. If you’re ever in the restaurant and you’d like to speak to me about what we should carry, please feel free to ask for me as well. Thanks.

+1 for the right attitude. You can easily compete with other stores in terms of attracting beer geeks like us. We don’t need vast quantities to be impressed, just some really interesting choices that are tough to get elsewhere. For me, basically the crazier or more rare beer you can get on tap the better.

If bottles are priced reasonably I am more than happy to buy bottles of good beer as well.

I’d recommend keeping one or two taps for local beer, a couple for more widely consumed craft beer, and a couple rotating with some really unique selections.

Thanks for posting, I look forward to checking the place out. Be sure to let us know when it the opening will be held.

Cheers!
