Brutopia spans three floors, and on each floor is a bar. This Crescent Street brewpub offers both familiar and exotic ales, but specialize in full-flavoured English ales: Nutbrown, Raspberry, Extra Blonde, Honey Beer, Porter, Blackout Stout, as well as its unique India Pale Ale.
Brutopia is described as a warm, welcoming spot for craft beer lovers and live music, with a solid lineup of house brews, a lively but cozy atmosphere, and friendly staff. An upstairs space works well for groups, weekends feature live music and open mic nights, and the downtown Montreal location is convenient before events. The beer and food receive praise, including wings, nachos, and poutine, with good value for the price. Some caveats include occasional beers that feel slightly watered down, a few dishes that were overcooked, and moments of loudness during busy periods, but the overall impression is of a dependable, neighborhood brewpub experience with strong hospitality.
A lovely spot with a nice selection of beer (including an ipa from wellington, new zealand which reminded me of the good days beer hopping there while studying), good food & really lovely service. A small place & can get pretty busy but it is also good proof that you can't go wrong with simplicity when it is done well.
J'ai découvert ce petit pub hier soir grâce à une amie. Ça m'a rappelé mes années à Concordia. J'ai adoré leur IPA & le cheeseburger avec salade était parfait aussi. La prochaine fois je vais revenir pour écouter un band ou un chanteur.
Still going strong! It's been about 15 years since I visited & they still have some of the same good beers & a great vibe for meeting friends to chat over a few pints. The service was excellent, friendly & attentive. Definitely happy to see them holding their own with good craft beer.
So fun everytime! I've been a regular here for a while for casual hang outs & weekly trivia & every single member of the staff is so nice, the prices are good & the beer is great. Trivia is fun, fast paced & I love that everyday of the week there's a new event.
Absolutely fantastic Monday night! Great food, cool waitress & a group of young people who invited me to be a part of their trivia team. The beer is great! I'll be back when in town.

Beers a tad expensive especially in Quebec but it's a microbrewery so it's to be expected, beer was super good nothing special but also a lot better than other breweries, Cubanon sandwich is perfect it's one of my favourite sandwiches of all time & they don't disappoint here
