one stop beer shop in Montreal

Post by BigLuke78 »

I have a friend going to Montreal this week and he wants to know where to stop and get some of Quebec's best beer. He was hoping to get some Les Trois Mousquetaires, Le Trou du Diable and some of the non-Ontario offered Unibroues and Dieu Du Ciel. Can anyone suggest a one stop shop in the MTL area?

Thanks
Beer me!

If it's one stop you're after, Depanneur Peluso is your place, they have the biggest selection in the city.

Peluso is a great place although I find their prices a little high. But if you need a place close to downtown with everything, there are no better.

Although, if you don't mind a small drive, might I suggest Depanneur Grand Duc

Another great store and prices are a little smaller than Peluso.

I've always found Au Coin Duluth to be excellent. Prices seem to be a little better than some of the other places, and they always seem to have some of the rarer stuff a little bit longer (I guess because it's lesser known?).

What about Dépanneur Rahman on Laurier? Is it still there? The place looks like crap, but they had good selection and prices.

Rahman you really have to look at the bottling date. Christ I found old Bierpholie bottles there. The other problem with that place is there is no temp control.

How good is the beer if it's been on the shelf for a year under sweltering heat in the summer?
