Recently opened in Laval's Centropolis, Le Balthazar Laval is the sister of the original one at Joliette. Serving beers exclusively from Quebec breweries, it is an excellent place to have a tasting of different type of beers or to sip at a local recipe! You can select a tasting of 4 or 5 small portions of beer with very affordable prices. My personal favorite is La Vie de Château from Le Grimoire which has a slight rum and caramel taste or the selection from the brewery of Ile d'Orleans! They also offer an interesting menu of pub foods that is surprisingly good. However, the service is slow and not that knowledgeable of their products. And they have this fan that just makes this constant and annoying noise... not cool... But I must point, if you are lucky, you might catch the 'sommelier' which has great knowledge and passion about beers! A good place to have a beer between friends without the problem of finding a parking ;) Hey it is Laval after all :D
