MONTREAL, QC – Charles Bierbrier, founder of Montreal’s Bierbrier Brewing, has announced that his company has entered into a strategic alliance with La Compagnie de Bière Brisset, owner of the MTL Premium Lager brand.
Under the terms of the agreement, Brisset has purchased the Bierbrier brewing facility, where it will now be producing MTL Premium Lager (which was previously contract brewed by Brasseur De Montréal), as well as the Bierbrier brands – Bierbrier Premium Ale, Bierbrier Pilsner Lager and Joe Beef Special Pils – under a new production and distribution agreement.
Charles Bierbrier will continue to be involved with the day-to-day operations at the brewery, and will represent the Bierbrier brands in conjunction with Brisset.

- Greg C. is drinking a Brett Peach by Burdock at King & Dufferin2+ years old but still lively & effervescent. Brett notes have a mild funk that mingles nicely with the peach that remains. A nice treat!
- Greg C. is drinking an Ebb & Flow by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinIt has a nice tart citrus character - notably lime - and is clean & refreshing on the palate. The finish is a bit wan & watery, though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hazy Little Thing by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. at King & DufferinRight on the mark for the style - hazy appearance, soft on the palate, aroma & flavour of tropical fruit & sweet citrus. Quite nice.
- Greg C. is drinking a Toute Est Dans Toute by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot the most complex or experimental beer either of the breweries have made, but a nice rustic saison with a slightly fruity funkiness.
- Greg C. is drinking a The Silver Tart by Big Spruce Brewing at King & DufferinTop notch kettle sour with additional kick of tartness from the raspberry. Feels like a summer beer but just as tasty in January.
