If you’re a hops connoisseur and chatting over a beer equals good times, you’ll be happy to learn that the Mauricie region is home to more than a dozen microbreweries. Plan your own discovery rally and be ready for an impressive look at the know-how and creativity of the region’s craft beer experts. Between the evocatively named Le Temps d’une Pinte (over a pint), Microbrasserie À la Fût (a play on words that combines the meanings “on tap” and “on the lookout”) and Le Trou du Diable (the devil’s drinking hole), there’s plenty for your taste buds to savour. Pair your favourite brews with culinary delights prepared on site to complete your gourmet immersion into the region’s terroir. (Website available in French only)
