A tiny,  well-lit, lab-like brewery with tap handles for tasters and growler fills, coolers with pre-filled growlers and not much else. It is a really nice set-up and one that is as rare as hen's teeth in Montreal and Quebec in general. I'm pretty sure that you can literally only taste on their permit (so no pints and hanging out) but they are friendly and happy to let you try what they offer, or at least they were the day I was there. It's nice to be able to get growlers filled properly for once. And I mean properly. They have a closed system to purge and fill your growler, which is slow but a ton of fun to watch. Ordinarily I would ding them for pre-filling growlers rather than filling to order, but I understand why they do it and from what I tasted there should be any issues as long as you aren't keeping them around forever.
As for my score, this is a real nice place. I dinged them in selection since not everything is always available for fills (some is pre-filled) and I bumped up the score for quality as they do a great job of packaging it in as ideal of conditions as possible. In a perfect world both the score and the quality of their beers will balance out with these two factors.
