Chambly and Area

Post by cannondale »

Other than Unibroue, Fourquet/Fourchette and Benondaine & Bedons Ronds, any other recommendations for places to visit in Chambly and vicinity?

Can anyone who has managed to successfully arrange a Unibroue tour describe how to go about doing so?

Le Bilboquet is a nice brewpub in St. Hyacinthe. It would be under an hour away.

They make a solid Scotch Ale (MacKroken Flower) and a decent Sweet Stout (La Corriveau). I haven't tried any of their other offerings.

That place is awesome:

I left with almost $200 worth of beer... and he threw in some free glassware & a bottle opener!

This one's not too far across the river, and recently expanded (the sign out front says Boni-Soir):

I can vouch for this place! Excellent beers made here!
