Montreal’s Mondial de la bière

June 11 - 15, 2014
The Mondial de la bière was founded in Montreal in 1994. It is a unique and friendly tasting event, and is considered a doorway to the brewing industry in Quebec and around the world. It is based on learning, tasting, sharing and networking with the brewers and the industry’s professionals.

A visitor will also have an opportunity to experience many culinary delights. For instance, IGA invites everyone to discover how to cook with beer. There will be three cooking workshops presented every day, where chef André-Paul Moreau and his helpers will use IGA products to create perfect matches with various beers. These fifteen demonstrations and a special presentation of Le Voyageur cheese with put the spotlight on local products, cheeses, quality meats as well as seafood.
