Unibroue
Inc. is one of Canada's premier breweries. Founded in 1991, Unibroue has brewed
high-quality Belgian-style ales, and has experienced tremendous growth since its
inception. Unibroue's beers are well-respected, unique, original, innovative
and heavily drunk (at least by the staff of the Bar Towel).
Québec possesses a wonderful microbrewing
culture, and Unibroue has led the way. Unibroue is the juggernaut
of the Québec micro industry, being the top-selling micro in the province, and
one of the top 20 micros in North America.
Success has brought hopes of even
greater growth to the company, which began trading on the Montréal Exchange
in spring 1997 under the symbol UBE (it has sinced moved to the Toronto
Stock Exchange). The micro stock market has not been thriving
lately, and time will tell if Unibroue can achieve success in stock performance as
they have had in brewing beer.
You will find in this section a brief history of the brewery and its founders; a
guide to their beers and their availability in Ontario; and a chronicle of my visit
to the brewery in 1997.
