You haven't heard? Summer in Montreal just got extended by almost two months, and we’re celebrating at the nearest beer garden.
With so much great beer—and great gardens—to choose from in Montreal, we’ve narrowed our list down to a few of our frosty favourites.
1. Messorem Bracitorium
Don’t miss: What started as an industrial microbrewery project with a tasting room brews IPA’s, sour beers and aged beers in barrels. Come for the pints on the dog-friendly terrasse; stay for the Oktoberfest sausages and sauerkraut.

Don’t miss: Possibly the largest beer garden in the city, discover Belle Gueule’s Biergarten, a selection of European beers and a killer, Bavarian-inspired menu by chef Paul Toussaint of Time Out Market Montréal’s Americas BBQ and Paul Toussaint.
