North Mountain Brewing was the second stop on the Brews Cruise UYE. Just from setting up a reservation for us, I could tell we were in for an awesome time!
I called in to reserve a table for our expected group of 18. I was worried I'd have to reschedule or have us at different tables when the hostess told me there was already a bigger group reservation for that same time. But she told me she'd have the manager Candy call me back to see what we could do.
Candy was quick to get back to me and not only was she more than accommodating to having both groups there, she even managed to set us up in a single table so we didn't have to be separated! She went way above and beyond to make this happen and I owe her a huge thank you!
I also want to thank our server Chris. He had the daunting task of taking care of all of us and did an amazing job.
The brewery itself was amazing. Great decor that included art pieces from local artists in a wide open dining area. There's enough screens in there for anyone to come in to watch the game over some brews.
Meg and I both shared an order of Lumpia and Poutine for dinner. The Lumpia was fantastic! Very flavorful and crispy with plenty to share between four people. The Poutine with braised short ribs and cheese curds is probably the best I have ever had. Very tender short ribs and gobs of cheese on a huge plate of fries. I also got to sample the crab dip which was awesomely buttery and creamy. Fantastic all around.
And then there was the extensive amount of brews. North Mountain has 12 different beers with a little bit of everything. I ordered a large sample and of the 8 I tried, my favorites were the Ryder of Broyhan and Barrel Aged CardinAle Red.
All in all, North Mountain Brewing Company was amazing. Great service, great food, and great beers. I cant wait to come out here again.
