Launched during the sailing competition « Transat Québec St-Malo » of 1992, this extra-blonde beer caresses you with its amazing softness.

The power of this ale resides in its various influences: English, Belgium and Austrian malts, German and American hops as well as English yeasts. The savant balance of the Transat soothes you despite its lightness.

Who said blondes were faded?

Since its creation during our first year of existence, this light perfumed coriander wheat keeps addicting our clients.

This best selling beer is inspired by Belgium except for one thing: instead of using citrus during the brewing process, as the tradition requires, we chose to serve this beer on lees with a piece of lime in order to give to this « party pooper » the freshness it deserves.

In December 1990 was born a superbly shimmering red: a sparkling English Lady. Since this beer is so balanced, the master brewer claimed: « My goodness, this is not a two of spades! » We then decided to name it the « Three of Spades » for it had been created during our 3 rd anniversary.

Brewed with the purest tradition from malted barley, this red is dominated by caramel malt. It is subtly hopped in order to bring out all of its richness; a real pleasure to taste.

The best holiday beer, as if England went down to Italy to treat itself.

Despite its subtle hopping, the taste has more flower than spice which adds to its calming and suave personality.
An amazing anti-stress, the perfect friend for happy days and idle life. Must be drunk without any ulterior motive.

*** Available from May to November.

 

 

First of our seasonal beers, following a special request from the museum of Civilization, it has been created in 1992 in order to open an exhibition on Ancient Viking civilization which had its peak between 800 and 1000 AC. Following an historical research carried out with the museum and the Suede embassy, we created this recipe combining barley, wheat, honey and cranberries to produce this nectar drunk, one thousand years ago, by Eric the Red, Leif Eriksson and even Hagar the Horrible.

To add more pleasure to the tasting of this beer, we serve it with fresh cranberries.

*** Available in February only.

First official creation of our brewer Jean Lampron, the CreaminAle transcends beautifully the traditional and fore seeking personality of this beer lover. Although it has a charming amber color, it is traditional because of its bitter taste and its English cream ale style, and fore seeking because opposite of English beers, it is served on lees like Belgium wheat beers.

Not like others, creamy like it shouldn't be allowed, tackling all traditions, it brings out to whom who tastes it, some secret inhibitions… will it lead you to crime? Passionate crime or serial CreaminAle? In order to know, you have to come back on the site of the crime…

*** Available from May to mid-June.

 

 

In Europe during the middle-age era, hop was one of many condiments used to perfume and add bitterness to beers. Local plants were used as well as spices coming from continents like Africa or Asia .

It is in this state of mind, inspired by rare ancient texts, with little information, that we created the Kermesse, during the medieval festivities of 1995. Even then, recipes were kept secret.

Other than barley and wheat, we added cardamom, orange bock and coriander, which make this beer tasty, summery and ideal for celebrations.

** Available from Saint-Jean-Baptiste until harvest time.

 

Every fall, since 1992, she is back from Basse-Côte-Nord with her aromas of honey, cloud berries, and Labrador tea. Her name comes from the cloud berry traditionally picked by a tribe of native people called «Montagnais», established on the north coast of the Saint-Laurence River . This little fruit is issued from the same family as the blackberry or the raspberry. Labrador tea, infused like usual tea by the Montagnais, is used instead of hop in order to add bitterness to the beer.

The Montagnaise is an original beer, one of our creation we are proud the most.

*** Available in October and November.

A Christmas Holiday beer, strong, hybrid of stout and porter, the Sortilege is a real black in which roasted barley expresses itself without restriction supported and emphasized by the presence of malt's residual sugar. An Irish inspired hopping completes its composition. Served with the purest tradition of cream ales, with dense and creamy foam, it is everything but a light beer; a beer for connoisseurs of strong tastes, a beer which makes you forget the harshness of winter.

*** Available in December and January.
