Le Trou du Diable - Brewery / Shop / Salon (Craft Beer & Brewery in Shawinigan QC)

Le Trou du Diable (the name translates to “The Devil’s Hole”) is a brewery, shop and salon in Shawinigan, Québec that manages to be both a shrine to genuine brewing skill and a playground for the inner child. The premises smell of malt and ambition, and the staff treat each pint like a small masterpiece. Visitors are greeted by a bar where a bewildering selection of beers can be sampled at leisure, while the tasting room offers bottled examples for those who prefer a measured sip.

Tours are limited to weekends, and the guided experience includes a proper tasting – no half‑hearted swigs. After the tour, you can linger in the retro arcade, where classic games compete with the aroma of freshly brewed hops, making the whole place feel like a lively pub‑laboratory. The operation is a reminder that good beer can be both sophisticated and unpretentious, and that a bit of joystick action never hurt a connoisseur.
