Hello Everyone,

While it may not quite feel like it, spring should be on the way, but for now due to weather we are still targeting April 1st as the start of running season.  Not to worry, we still have been meeting weekly and enjoying our beers every Wednesday, so for those of you that may still doubt that we are doing anything, while it may not be exercise, it's the best way to beat cabin fever.

Bar Change- T-shirt Update and More

Hi Everybody,

We've had an awesome turnout already here in April even with the terrible weather, so for those of you waiting to see if this thing is real or not you gotta come check it out yourself.

Because we're getting so big I decided we needed to change up from Yer Mad, especially since there isn't really any food there, so Brutopia it is.

Also, we may, *may* get the T-shirts in for Wednesday.  If so, we will distribute immediately.  If not, I will probably have them later this week and will bring them along for next Wednesday as well.  If you want it before then just ask me and I'll work something out.

Also, if anyone is interested the Half & Full Marathon rates are going up on Thursday, so if you want to save a few bucks and commit now here's the link.  http://ca.competitor.com/montreal/inscription.

Here's another link for anyone that really wants to become an ultimate beer runner.  http://www.craftbrewraces.com/stowe/.  Yes, that's right, running directly into a beer festival.  I'll be going, and I'm sure there will be more cars headed down as well so book off June 14th on your calendar today.

Last call for shirt pre-orders

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to give fair notice here that I will order the T-shirts as of Monday, so if you do not even fill out the google form (I will attach the link one more time below), I will not guarantee that I will have a shirt for you in your size or preferred color. This way we should have the shirts (I hope) for the April 23rd run to Brasserie Cherrier, one of our favorite destinations.

Weather is turning in our favor

How's 12 and sunny sound for a good running night?  Well that's the forecast for Wednesday and I can't think of a better way to spend it than running and watching the Habs with a few beers and a few friends. 

Our destination this week may be a bit smaller but we will do our best to make sure that they have room for us.  Get ready for some great beers and good food in this little NDG pub.

This is gonna be a big year

Well if I'm reading the signs correctly it looks like this is gonna be a big year for us.  We've gotten a huge outpouring of interest from people all over the city for this season, so much so that some destination bars may have to be changed to accommodate our size.

Weather should be ok for Wednesday, possible rain but if anything it should be light.  We'll see everyone at the base of the statue at 7 (we will leave by 7:10 latest, if you're going to be late you can try to find us on the mountain or just do your own thing and meet at the bar around 7:30-7:45).

April Destinations Up- Official 1st run of 2013

Welcome everyone to the official 2013 Montreal Beer Runners schedule!  While it may be a chilly start for the season, it promises to be quite the year for us.  We are looking to spread the word of our mission this year, so we've stepped up our presence to do so. 

Here are our other resources for getting the word out to the community at large:

Meetup.com (free, great resource for anyone)- http://www.meetup.com/Montreal-Beer-Runners/ 
Facebook (c'mon, everyone uses this)- https://www.facebook.com/groups/392120524189223/

We love our first destination, Brasserie Cherrier, and they have been good to us since we started.  Please remember to bring cash, and bring an appetite for the great kitchen of Flamme!
