content: I'm ashamed to admit that even after a hefty amount of research, study, and even eliciting suggestions from \""local\"" Yelpers; I hardly put a dent into the list of desired visits while in Montreal this past week.\n\nBut I did, and happily so, make it to Dieu du Ciel. I also did it around 3pm (what a great time to hit this place) on Thursday for a late lunch/early beer[s] by my lonesome. I had taken a long scenic stroll from Chinatown gate all the way to Saint Joseph to get a good feel for the area, when, on my return, I spied the busy outdoors of Dieu du Ciel. It was an immediate and obvious choice.\n\nThe beer selection is nice - I believe between 12-14 on draft. Although the descriptions were En fran\u00e7ais, if you're a beer drinker of any accord, you will get the basic gist of it. The waitress, friendly [enough] and attractive, was more than accommodating.\n\nI started with the Fumisterie - excellent - and went well with the merguez pizza I ordered. At some point, said waitress, pointed me towards the American IPA - I was less impressed, and perhaps she was merely making a point that I was, indeed, an American *note taken. It was light, and less hoppy than what we're used to pounding stateside - this may actually be a good thing, as the hop-levels in America, much like our waistbands, seem to have no bounds.\n\nBy the time I paid, and left, the place was packed. A wonderfully eclectic, down to Earth, and fun looking crowd. I was tempted to return, but had other watering holes to attend to.\n\nI'll be back - late afternoon drinking here was a wonderful experience.
