Tip leads police to half of Grolsch beer stolen near Montreal

LONGUEUIL, Que. — A little more than half of the 20,000 cases of beer stolen last month near Montreal have been recovered thanks to a tip, Longueuil police said Wednesday.

Police said 11,000 cases of Grolsch were recovered in a warehouse in a borough in southwestern Montreal.

The beer was reported stolen from a warehouse south of Montreal on March 12.

Three trucks, which were packed with the beer, dried beef and Jack Link’s brand pepperoni, were later found abandoned and empty.
