Beer Snobs Visit Millcreek Brewing Company - 7.6 out of 10

Millcreek Brewing Company 

Beer Snob's Rating: 7.6 out 10

Millcreek Brewing Company is located in an old historical building with three large areas where you can enjoy your brew! The front is somewhat modern, a restaurant/lounge with a bar.  There's a front patio and in the back is the Beer Garden. The Beer Garden is a large outdoor space and you can feel the beachy vibes since the brewery is located so close to Presque Isle. The crown jewel of this brewery is the glorious Bier Hall, complete with two story vaulted ceiling and donated pews for seating for a complete Bavarian feel. The room is loaded with TV's visible from all angles, so this would be an awesome place to watch the football game on Sunday night. Also, there are plenty of windows which is awesome for natural lighting, and the curious folk can get a glimpse of the tanks and brew works.
