I can't say I didn't enjoy the beer festival because I did. But I definitely thought it was too expensive. I'm used to beer festivals where you pay one price and try unlimited beers. That's how we do it in America. It was an average of 3 tickets for a 4 ounce taste here, which for you mathemagicians is a whopping $12 a pint. Pretty pricey.
I went for the beers I couldn't get around Montreal. Dieu du ciel and Brutopia are great but the beers are half that price in their bars. I tried some other good beers from around Canada. Even went back another day to get the name of the best beer I tried!
