Mill St. is a fantastic brewery in Toronto. If you find yourself in the Distillery District, go to their restaurant. If you’re at an L.C.B.O. or The Beer Store and see anything labeled Mill St. grab it.
The organic lager is … okay. There’s not alot of flavor or character to it, though I prefer this to a pilsner, any light beer anywhere, or any mass produced commodity beer in the US. The web page describes it as “delicate”, and that’s as good an adjective as I can come up with.
It’s a 4.2% ABV with a filtered, yellow color. There’s not alot of nose to it. It drinks easy.
If you’re keen on organic beer, this is your brew. I’ve tasted many, many worse options. Mill St. Organic Lager is superior to most mass produced off-the-shelf beers in the U.S. If you like a Bud or Miller or their ilk, you will more than like the Mill St. Organic. Take a suitcase home with you.
