Hey guys I'm going to be heading to Ottawa the weekend of Nov 7th to catch the Ti-Cats vs RedBlacks game and thought I'd ask where would be the best places to buy some Quebec craft in Gattineau to take home and any bar recommendations. Last year we went to the Georgetown Pub and it was a great night, but not a lot of local brew.
When living in Ottawa a few years back I heard good things about Broue Ha Ha, They apparently have over 300 Quebec Microbrews. Get some Dieu du Ciel aphrodisiaque and Moralite and Le Castors Yakima IPA is a must, By far the best IPA ive tried in Canada to date. pit Caribou has some good brews too.
Ottawa Brothers Beer Bistro Tooth and Nail Arrow and Loon Bier Markt Central Bierhouse Wellington Gastropub Union Local 613 Hintonburg Public House Local Lansdowne Pub Italia Black Tomato Atomic Rooster Sir John A The Manx Gatineau Dep. Rapido Marche de Brasseurs d'ici L'autre Oeil Go RedBlacks
More specifically, Arrow and Local are close to Landsdowne. Easy stops en route to the game. Skip the other shops and go to Broue Ha Ha.
I you're going anywhere near the stadium, GO EARLY! The descent of 24000 ppl on the Glebe can create a line or two.
Should be a pretty meaningful games with the win yesterday! With the game starting at 1 on the Sunday you could do a good breakfast somewhere and then go to the Loon for drinks...no good beer in the stadium either
