Introducing Light Mode! If you would like a Bar Towel social experience that isn't the traditional blue, you can now select Light Mode. Go to the User Control Panel and then Board Preferences, and select "Day Drinking" (Light Mode) from the My Board Style drop-down menu. You can always switch back to "Night Drinking" (Dark Mode). Enjoy!
I am a Habs fan and always have beer. And I don't hate the Leafs. I hate the Leafs' fans. And Bob Cole. (Same thing, I guess).

They built an addition in the back for the sole purpose of craft beer. If they don't carry every beer available in Quebec I'd be surprised. Super nice employees and if the owner is there, he'll walk you through the place and is extremely knowledgeable.
It's just east of downtown. Maybe a 10 min drive from downtown and very worth the trip.
Thanks for this! I just dropped by there, very nice. I spoke to a guy who appeared to be the owner (I forgot to ask) he was very helpful. Finally a place to find almost all great Quebec beers at retail.
Brands are for cattle.
Fans are cash cows.
The herd will consume until consumed.
Ow, this hurts. I just realized that my wife's last-hurrah weekend-away-without-the-kids-before-going-back-to-work is in Montreal and happens to be on the weekend of Mondiale.
I'll be at home with the kids.

Hide the kids in her luggage. Your marriage can't be that important.

At least you should write her up a shopping list.
