L'amère a boire, and le cheval blanc are both within walking distance of each other, and are outstanding brewpubs. Le saint bock is a nice place but their wn beers are not ery good.

ratebeer has combined the entries for the bengal lancer, and the recent IPA we had here in the LCBO together. They are claiming that the IPA we got in bottles during the Fullers brewery feature is the Bengal Lancer under a different name.
