Oktoberfest: Massive three-day beer festival kicks off outside Montreal next week
How about concluding the summertime festival season in Montreal with beer? And lots of it.
Marketed as the “most important craft beer festival in Quebec,” the Oktoberfest de Repentigny will take place over three days (about 40 minutes from Montreal), inviting guests to taste craft beers, ciders, meads, wines, as well as a wide range of local products from the four corners of Quebec.
The site is free for children under the age of 17 (who obviously can’t drink) and ranges from $18 (plastic cups) to $24 (glass) for adults. Once inside, four-ounce tasting glasses vary between $2 and $4.
