Pub crawl

I have been playing with Chat GPT and I found the best use - design a pub crawl. It’s similar to our AGM and that was fun. Anyone interested in giving it a go on Saturday?

:beer_mug: ROSEMONT / VILLERAY PUB CRAWL

Walkable • Accessible en métro • Montréal

:metro: POINT DE RENCONTRE / MEETING POINT

Très interessant!!! je regarde ça pour pouvoir être présent (et conduire par la suite :grimacing:)

As talked about before Terry, when are we organizing a beer trip with club members in the next year or so (A European trip sounds much safer these days!!!). Who’s in?!?

I’m in! Excellent breweries, too bad Hurricana closed, that was a real beer nerd place and would fit perfectly with these. Thanks for making this Metro accessible! Are we thinking of this for an afternoon thing, start around lunch time, maybe 1pm? Also @ergau43 I’d be in for a beer trip too! I did Germany and Czechia last year, Belgium the year before, it would be fun to try England/Ireland, bunch of cask ale, stouts and porter!

Very cool idea! I don’t think I’ll be able to get away from obligations Saturday, but I’m keeping an eye on whatever ends up happening in case I can swing something. You never know….

I’m in, given the weather cooperates

Even if you can just make it to one, it’d be good to catch up!

Should we say 1PM for meet up then?

As for the european trip, i agree with Graham, UK would be great (i’ve also recently done Denmark, Czechia, Austria and going to Munich/Bamberg/Dusseldorf/Cologne soon), focussing just a bit on London and cask ale, followed by going up north, such as Burton, Scotland etc…to be continued!

1:00 at Le Relais Boréal Montréal sounds great!

FYI it looks like Chat GPT isn’t giving the closest metro station to Boreal. I’m going to try De Castelnau on the blue line. I am not an experienced metro passenger but via google maps it looks like a 30 min walk from Rosemont or 12 min from Jean Talon, both on the orange line, but Chat GPT is now saying that Beaubien is the closest.

Almost fell from chair reading the tips. Wills is one of my preferred brewery. Now I know why! :rofl:

I cannot join you this time, unfortunately, but I’ll keep an eye on the forum for further similar outings.

Cheers! :clinking_beer_mugs:

Wow Terry, what a good idea / meeting setup!

I have something else this weekend with my daughter. A little too short notice for me, but if it’s planned some weeks in advance, I would fit it in my plan / schedule !

Have a nice day to all of members !

If anybody is potentially planning on joining us, send me a private message. I’ll give you my phone number so you can call us and see where we are.
