I went in on Tuesday night for a social function and of course wanted to try their food. I was familiar with Mill St. through some of their alcoholic apple ciders, but they only had one on the menu in-restaurant compared to their online menu. A bit of a shame, but whatchagonnado?

Since the only cider on tap was one I'd had before, I decided to go for a Beer Flight to try out four of their various beers. More on that in a second.

Having looked at the online menu, I wanted to go for either the Elk Burger or the Korean Fried Chicken Sandwich, and the elk burger won me over because as my server, Charlotte, explained, it really is elk meat, and not just a name they give the burger!

Delicious and juicy with a unique taste that tells you it isn't beef — but that isn't gamey or a bad aftertaste at all! — I'd definitely get it again. The fries reminded me of Swiss Chalet's fries, though they were smaller and drier, for lack of a better word. When I say drier, I mean that they weren't oily or bulging or anything like that. They weren't "dry" in the sense that they were super chewy, they were maybe just dried a teeny-tiny bit too much before frying. Still great fries! I enjoyed them a lot and only wish I had more! ;)

Given that they're a brewery, I imagine the beer to be the major draw, so let me talk about the flight I got. As you can see in the photo, and if you refer to the menu, you get four 5 oz samples of beer for a combined total of 20 oz.

Now, it's the same price as a large mug, but you get less overall, but if you're interested in trying out four of the beers they have on offer without having to get a full glass/mug/pitcher of a single kind, this is the way to go.

(The glasses are also super cute and I loved them!)

I tried the Portage, the Mango March, the Orange Citrus, and the Cobblestone Stout.

Mango March - 1/5 - I wouldn't bother. The mango taste is so faint it might as well have not been there. I realize it's a gimmick, and I wasn't exactly expecting a flavoured beer, but I would've liked some consistent flavour throughout. It had a wheat-y aftertaste that I really didn't care for.

Orange Citrus Wheat - 3/5 - Not bad by any stretch, but I couldn't any any orange or citrus. It was a fine beer, but there wasn't any taste of the gimmick, so I'd give this a pass, honestly.

Portage Cream Ale - 4/5 - It's a little basic all things considered, but it's light and easy to drink. Your beeriest beer of the four, but if you're there, you're better off getting the stout!

Cobbestone Stout - 5/5 - Absolutely DELICIOUS! I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone. I'm not super-experienced, but I've had a Guinness before, and this would be my preference. It isn't heavy, it's super smooth, and very tasty. Easy to drink and something different than your basic beers. If I go back, I'm definitely getting this.

Charlotte, my server, was excellent and a real sweetheart. I arrived about 30 minutes late to the function, but I was definitely taken care of when it came to food and drink and I was even able to ask her for recommendations when it came to the beer. If I remember right, she recommended the Orange Citrus.

The ambience is lovely, the food is really good, but certain things can be a tad pricey. I opted against dessert because I couldn't possibly justify spending $12 on the toffee pudding I'd wanted. The elk burger is $25, and worth it, I'd say, but save it for a special occasion.

Overall excellent, would recommend, but know going in that certain things are pricey for good reason!
