Menaud - Brewery & Distillery

Artisanal cocktails and craft spirits rooted in Charlevoix terroir.

Menaud – Brewery & Distillery in Clermont, Québec, is where the rugged charm of Charlevoix meets a mischievous love for booze. Their artisanal cocktails and craft spirits wear the region’s terroir like a badge of honour, each sip a miniature history lesson—from the old‑world Absinthe rituals to daring, modern twists that would make even a purist raise an eyebrow.

The beer side is equally impressive, with a rotating slate of taps that never seems to run dry. What truly sets them apart is the barrel‑aging program: brews mature in wood salvaged from the Fleuve, soaking up the river’s character and leaving a trace of the landscape in every glass. Add to that a line‑up of eight distinct hard‑liquor creations, all distilled with the same meticulous care, and you’ve got a menu that could convince a teetotaler to reconsider his life choices.

Inside, the space shouts “industrial‑chic” without the pretension, and the staff are eager to share the stories behind each product (they’ve spent more time perfecting their pitches than most politicians). The result is a place where quality and craftsmanship are celebrated with a grin and a generous pour.
