| - I would say Creemore is one of my favorite beers out there, so I was super excited to learn that they were opening their own brewpub.
We showed up around 12:30 on a Sunday and the place was sparsely populated. (I think they had just opened up a few days earlier, so I'm sure this won't last long.)
I've had a hankering for a hamburger for a while, so obviously I went ahead and ordered the BATCH Burger. (Dry aged beef + cheddar + red onion + ranch mayo + fries.) It took a while to arrive to the table but it was definitely worth the wait. The burger was surprisingly tasty; it didn't have any unnecessary filler and had been cooked on the grill, so it boasted a very appealing crust. The toppings were perfect, and the accompanying salad was better than expected. (My dining companion got the fries, which I sampled. They were way too thick and chunky and even a little undercooked in the middle. Hopefully they'll switch to a more traditional french fry.)
And, of course, since it's Creemore I had to sample the beer. I got a flight of four different brews and they were all delicious, especially the Irish Red Ale.
And since we're pigs, we had to try one of their six desserts. On our helpful waitress' recommendation we sampled the Coconut Pineapple Cream Pie, which was definitely above average. It's very different from any coconut cream pie I've ever had, as the custard is much more dense than your typical custard. But it's quite good nevertheless.
All in all I'd call this place a winner. I'll definitely be heading back to sample their dinner wares.
