Les Brasseurs GMT
Montréal, Quebec, Canada · Est. 1987
Tally's Take
Why this matters
One of the microbreweries that appeared in Quebec's 1987 wave — the province's first real craft generation, and years ahead of most of Canada. AMBQ records GMT as one of three breweries bought up to form Brasseurs RJ in 1998, which is how much of that generation actually ended: not by closing, but by being assembled into something larger.
