While this place was a saviour and a half on a hot day I sadly am giving it a 3/5 and here's why:
The beer. The beer should be the best part, it is after all Les 3 Brasseurs.... The three brewers. I don't love their beer. I was disappointed by the IPA. I expect an IPA to be the right mix of hoppy and malty and this was obviously tamed down... I expect because this is a chain and less about focusing on the beer themselves so to make it appeal to more they dumbed down the hops but it didn't do it for me.
The atmosphere was good, we sat at the bar which is pretty funky, neat old lights with the brew tanks visible and felt very brew-pubby.
The service was okay. Okay at best. It was really busy and people were running around so it's understandable, but it wasn't memorable.
The location really did save us the most. We'd been wandering Montreal all day with our packs before our train and so this was a great place to stop in as is nice and close to the train but to be honest, that's about it.
I expect more in Montreal really. There are so many amazing breweries and brasseries around the city I expected more.
