Looking for a place to grab some beers this weekend, Bavarian-style?

You may want to head to one of Montreal’s many beer gardens. As we’re known for out terrasse culture, it’s no surprise that the city also boasts some pretty awesome beer gardens.

Here are 5 outdoor beer gardens that will make you feel like you’re in Germany:

Brasserie McAuslan

Open from noon until late 7 days a week, Brasserie McAuslan is a pub in Sud-Ouest that magically transforms itself into a beer garden in the summer. The beer garden also happens to overlook the beautiful Lachine Canal. In essence, Brasserie McAuslan has beer, BBQ food, and an incredible view. What else could you ask for?

Where: 5080 Rue Saint-Ambroise

Le Saint Sulpice

Le Saint Sulpice is the perfect place to grab a beer. Located on bustling Rue Saint Denis, Saint Sulpice turns into a happening nightclub later in the evening, but if you’re looking to relax, be sure to head there early and take advantage of their giant beer garden. In addition to the steins of beer, the garden at Saint Sulpice is outfitted with twinkly lights and tons of fauna.

Where: 1680 Rue Saint Denis

Vices et Versa

A beer garden in Little Italy? Only in Montreal! Vices & Versa is a Quebec brewpub with a massive garden in the back. If you’re looking for craft beer and a fun, outdoor atmosphere, Vices & Versa has got you covered. Enjoy the heated outdoor patio complete with overhanging trees and all the beer you can possibly imagine.

If you’re a beer connoisseur, then The Bier Mark is the place to be. With over 150 beers from 30 different countries, I bet they have beers you’ve never even heard of. In addition to their vast selection of beer, The Bier Markt is known for their ultra yummy grub. Head out to the garden with a beer in hand and be sure to order something off the menu!

Where: 1221 Boulevard René-Lévesque Ouest

Das Bier

If you’re looking for a traditional Bavarian beer garden in Montreal, Das Bier is your best bet. With one of the finest selections of German beer in the city, Das Bier has refreshing beer, deliciously salty pretzels, and an overall great atmosphere. Oh, and you can expect your waiters to be dressed in traditional dirndls and lederhosen.
