Montreal, June 12, 2012 – On Saturday night (June 9), founder’s Peter McAuslan and Ellen Bounsall joined brewers from across the country at the 10th annual “Canadian Brewing Awards” gala diner at the Montreal Arts Centre.

McAuslan Brewing receive four medals, the only brewer to do so. Medals included: Gold for St-Ambroise Oatmeal Stout and St-Ambroise Pumpkin Ale, Silver for St-Ambroise Pale Ale and Bronze for St-Ambroise Scotch Ale.

bière’s “MBière” Awards.

“This is an exciting time for the microbrewery and craft beer industry – we are thrilled to be part of this momentum even after 25 years in the
business”, comments McAuslan.
