McAuslan Brewing has brewed on rue Saint-Ambroise in Montréal's Saint-Henri district since January 1989, when Peter McAuslan and Ellen Bounsall launched the St-Ambroise Pale Ale that still anchors the range. The house works in the ale traditions of the British Isles, fermenting in open tanks with a Yorkshire yeast, and sorts its beers into five series alongside newer non-alcoholic and gluten-free lines. Ownership passed to Les Brasseurs RJ in 2013, and a cidery and a distillery have since been added on the same site.
