Inspirée de la tradition des bières blondes bohémiennes, la Griffintown est la première bière brassée par Brasseur de Montréal à l’occasion de sa fondation, en 2008. Ayant évolué subtilement au cours des années, elle est sans l’ombre d’un doute la plus appréciée et la plus prestigieuse de nos bières. Le choix du Silo à grain que l’on retrouve sur la terrasse de la microbrasserie était un choix logique pour identifier cette bière iconique de la brasserie.

Nw. MTL - BOS. Easy going, smooth and slightly ripeish fruity with hints of malts and earthiness.

Sweet honey wet paper aroma and flavor. This mouthfeel, no hops to speak of. This is either a bad bottle or a bad beer.

Getreide in Nase und Trunk, leichtes Malz, dezente Süße. Erinnert an ein typisches Helles, ordentlich gebraut, aber auch nicht mehr als guter Durchschnitt.

~500ml draft at Le Richmond in Montreal, Quebec. The pour is clear golden with not much of a white head. The aroma is grain malt, floral, grass and a hint of vegetal. The taste is the grain, vegetal and grass of the nose plus a bright, artificial honey flavor. The palate is light to medium bodied, rough active carbonation and the sweet lingering finish.

Griffintown Montrealaise. Clear gold, filmy head make for a good looking blonde ale. Grainy, lightly suit with a touch of biscuit makes for a pretty standard blonde. Medium bodied with a smooth mouthfeel. The taste is earth, light malts, a bit metallic with a dry chalky bitter finish.

Enjoyed at the Bistro L’Autre Oeil in Aylmer, QC. Pours a golden colour with a great white head that lasts a very long time with decent lacing. Nice fruity malt aromas with some grain in the background. The taste is milder with the fruity malts and a little bitterness in the finish. A nice fruity malt beer that goes down nicely like my go-to Boréale beers. Gets hoppier as it goes. A better pale session beer than macros. I really enjoyed this one.
