Description
La Brasserie Artisanale BENELUX a été fondé en 2006, sur la rue Sherbrooke près de ce qui allait devenir le Quartier des Spectacles à Montréal.
Une deuxième succursale Brasserie Artisanale BENELUX a ensuite ouvert sur la rue Wellington à Verdun en 2013, devenant le premier bar et brasserie de cet arrondissement en 140 ans.
Un autre petit site de production a ouvert peu après dans Pointe-St-Charles (3810 rue St-Patrick, dans les anciens locaux de Brasseurs Sans Gluten) sous le nom de "Brasserie du Canal" et servait à complémer l'offre des deux succursales ainsi que de produire quelques produits embouteillés pour la vente extérieure.
La Brasserie du Canal a depuis été déménagée dans leur nouvelle Microbrasserie BENELUX à Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu (anciens locaux de Lagabière) où l'encannettage de leurs produits est effectuée depuis sous le nom BENELUX - Bières & Pubs.

Tasting at Matt’s; version 2014; 10.5% ABV
Brown color with huge compact head. Strong aroma of marzipan, bourbon, dust. Too high carbonation, having a negative impact on the mouthfeel; dark caramel flavor, some malt, too much whiskey and boozy notes, maybe rye, and some liquorice.
Very messy; excessive; not bad, but very difficult to drink.

Bottle - Boozy sweet bourbon notes and toffee. Cloudy dark brown with a rich beige head. Boozy bourbon notes, no heat but also a bit one sided. Not bad, but a bit boring.
