Featuring over 20 different types of home brewed beers, the Brasserie Dieu du Ciel is one of Montreal's leading brew pubs and a favourite stomping ground for connoisseurs of fine beers.
Dieu du Ciel! emerges in these reviews as a must for beer lovers, with a standout and evolving lineup that many describe as among Montreal's best, from Péché Mortel and other imperial stouts to seasonal sours and IPAs; the atmosphere is repeatedly praised as cozy, lively, and welcoming, with a strong terrace in good weather and a recent renovation that kept its charm while adding modern touches. Food gets varied marks: some praise juicy burgers, panko chicken, hummus and fries, nachos and poutine, while others find the food decent but not exceptional for the price and prefer focusing on beer. Service is often friendly and knowledgeable, though there are occasional complaints about timing or attentiveness. Prices are sometimes noted as high, but many feel the beer quality justifies it, and people frequently say they would return and bring friends. Overall, Dieu du Ciel! is celebrated as a premier Montreal brewery experience, with great beer, solid ambience, and a space that invites socializing and repeat visits.
Busy place, but great selection of beers!! I really enjoyed the sour & my new favorite, a smoked beer. Friendly staff, & nice interior, space for larger groups if you can find the space
Great beers. Amazing nachos, & vegitarian charcuterie board. Going to be a must stop anytime we return to Montreal. We came last year when it was closed so glad to see them open again. As good as ever if not better. Place is very nice. Looks great. clean. updated. Food is excellent. Beer is amazing. Odd note. But they really hit the mark with a simple gender neutral washroom.
+++ Vast & varied selection of beers, most/all brewed directly in-house. +++ Good layout & seating ever since the 2023 renovation. +++ Passionate & knowledgeable staff. --- Pricey food offerings for the quantity. This place is a reference in the local microbrew industry, & with reason. There is every sort of beer for everyone, & all of utmost quality. When success is that disconcertingly easy, all one can say is: "S-Tier, rien à redire."
Bière excellente, bouffe (surtout la poutine) délicieuse, ambiance relaxe (on s'entend parler) tout en étant chaleureuse & animée! C'est parfait pour un moment entre amis!
Good beer but the young barman (dark hair, glasses) working the bar on the pub side of the place had no clue how to pour a stout, which was surprising for a brewpub. After pouring me this monstrosity / joke (see photo!), I said nothing at the time not wanting to be annoying, but for the second one I asked him nicely if he could pour it so the head was around finger width, explaining that this was standard where I was from (Dublin - & this was listed as a "stout Irlandaise" so I figured I was not taking nonsense here). He did so & he said I should have told him the last one was badly poured. I said no problem not a big deal. (There were 8 people he was serving sat at the bar so I did wonder why he couldn't maybe look at the pint before he gave it to someone!) After 4 pints I had to leave & got the check. I tipped $4 thinking that was standard (as it is in NYC - a dollar a pint) & he told me passive-aggressively that "15% is normal, but ok". I would have preferred he just said thank you or nothing. Left a bad impression. I won't rush back. I do think the tipping culture is getting crazy. Getting a hard time for tipping $1 a pint across 4 pints sat at a bar, when the barman doesn't even know how to pour them!
In the gritty realm of craft brews, this microbrewery is an undisputed heavyweight. A solid 5/5 stars, because let's face it, their beer is a knockout. Each sip is a journey around the world of hops & malts, a symphony of flavors that transcends borders. From the first pour to the last drop, this microbrewery doesn't just brew beer; they craft liquid poetry. It's not just a local gem; it's a global beer pilgrimage. & at this microbrewery, you're not just feeling it-you're savoring a worldwide beer revolution. Cheers to the brews that redefine excellence! 🍻🌍
