Hello,

I have one ticket for saturday to sell.
It would have to be picked up at BDT because I don't have time to deliver in Ottawa.
$20.00

Hi Colin,

This website is Quebec's own "bartowel" and there is a Collectioneurs group.
I would post there.

Hi Guys

Lonnie brewed at Spinnakers and has worked in the brew business for years. He helped us out for a while at BDT, working after his day job.
Solid nice guy.
I am sure that he will help to make this beautiful land a beer oasis too.

I still have 2 Adam, 1 Fred & 6 Doggie Claws left.
The Doggie Claws are flat but I drink them or use them in a beef stew!
I would be into a case each of Adam & Fred for sure.

Ha Ha Sammy,

I think you need new glasses.

For the bottling squad, we hired an octopus!
Left us free to concentrate on quality control.

Burp :'D'

Hi Guys,

This Monday March 7, we delivered Dum Duminator to Marché Omni, both La Trappe à Fromage (Hull & Gatineau), Dépannier Rapido, BrouHaHa and La Brûlerie.
Of course, bottles are for sale at the pub also.

Cheers

Sorry cfrancis,

Since "Dum Duminator' is bottled conditioned, it will not be ready for sale for approximately 3 weeks.

Cheers

Hi Sprague11, Here is your excuse to travel to Shawinigan. Le trou du diable pub/brewery is certainly a rising star in the canadian brewing scene. The pub has a welcoming feel inside with all the funky woodwork and friendly staff. The food is locally sourced and tastes amazing. The brewery is one of...

Lately, I have been searching the Gatineau area stores for Charlevoix Amarillo Double IPA but all I could find is the Hercules version. A great beer also! Please excuse me for the shameless plug but the following 2 BDT beers both contain amarillo hops. http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/les-brasseurs-du-t...

Len, I was one of the brewers at the Montreal brewpub, not the micro.

If corne is bottle conditioned now, DdC has changed procedure. Dernier Volonte and Peche are bottle conditioned. Belgian, I second the Dernier Volonte vote. Before being introduced to DdC beers, I wasn't a fan of belgian style beers. Now my fave. One reason that I like Dernier Volonte is I find it e...
