  • I have to say I'm really disappointed in this brew pub. When I lived in Toronto for 5 years Mill Street was my go-to craft brewer with Amsterdam in a close second. Tankhouse was my trusty beer to replace Big Rock's Traditional Ale which, at the time, was hard to find in YYZ. Mill Street was even the location of my going away party when I moved back to YYC: https://www.yelp.ca/biz/mill-street-beer-hall-toronto?hrid=lVicS-UdmYVGY9t0LSlCtg&utm_campaign=www_review_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) When rumours started flying a couple years about them opening a location in Calgary I was excited. Then just before the official announcement in 2015 they also announced that they were being acquired by Labatt (InBev). Sad days. The location is great. It's on 17th Ave, but outside of the core of the Red Mile. We went after the Roughnecks game on a Friday night to find the place busy, but not crazy. We were able to find a table easily. I would imagine a different story after a Flames game. Our service was great. The ladies at the front greeted us and showed us to a few table options. Our server was right on top of things all night. What ruined the service factor for me was the end of the night. My bill came to just over $31 for my two flights and wife's glass of wine. I gave the server $40 and she said she'd be back with change. She never came back. I've worked as a bartender and I normally tip well, but wasn't going to leave a $9 tip. The only food our table ordered was fries. They were good and came with an aioli and ketchup. No complaints. The ultimate disappointment for me was, obviously, the beer. I had two flights during my visit so that I could try a bunch of new stuff and sip on some old favourites. My first flight was completely new to me options: Costigan Kolsch (2.5) Schleimhammer Roggenbier (3.25) Twin Tips Double IPA (2.25) Diggers Dunkel (3.0) My second flight was some new ones and old fav's: Lemon Tea Beer (4.0) Mountain Bock (3.5) West Coast Style IPA (2.0) Tankhouse Ale (4.5) Those numbers in brackets are my Untapped ratings. The beers made at the local brewpub all received mediocre to poor ratings from my palate. The West Coast IPA was the biggest downer for me. The bitterness that you would expect from an IPA came from the fruit (a bad thing) not from the hops (a good thing). The double IPA was really weak for a DIPA. There was no bite or dryness. Their Kolsch leaves something to be desired for me. The rest were just ok.
