They're called bodegas in New York, konbinis in Tokyo and offies in London - Montreal's convenience stores are dépanneurs, the go-to destination for everyday purchases. Symbols of neighborhood life present on many street corners, they're also where people traditionally buy beer. Most stores look decrepit and neglected. Molson, Montreal's original brewer, wanted to give back to the community. They relaunched their classic stubby by restoring 25 facades with makeovers inspired by the bottle's unique design.
