Beemer – Microbrasserie & Distillerie sits in Roberval, Québec, on the breezy shores of Lac St‑Jean. The outfit takes its name from the intrepid Horace Jansen‑Beemer, a man whose very moniker suggests a habit of turning ideas into liquid gold. Here, age‑old methods rub shoulders with state‑of‑the‑art gear, most spectacularly the gleaming MÜLLER alembics that dominate the distillation floor.
Visitors are treated to guided tours that feel more like a backstage pass at a rock concert, revealing how the same copper vessels that once birthed classic brandies now coax a crisp gin, a velvety vodka, and the whimsically named Bleuet liqueur out of locally sourced botanicals. The line‑up doesn’t stop at spirits; the brewery also churns out a respectable Quebec‑made rum and even a practical hand sanitizer, all offered with complimentary tastings that make the experience feel like a generous sampling rather than a hard sell.
The owners, warm and unpretentious, pride themselves on hospitality (they actually smile at you) and on keeping the focus squarely on craft. In short, Beemer blends reverence for tradition with a dash of daring innovation, producing drinks that are as enjoyable to sip as they are to talk about.
This microbrewery & distillery produces a range of high-quality products, including gin, vodka, liqueurs, and hand sanitizer, which are well-received by customers who appreciate their excellent taste and welcoming atmosphere.
