    Carmel apple martini with froth topping - YUM!!!
    Aimee B.

    Such a great spot to be able to come in and try a lot of different beverages. You start with a bracelet you scan to pour your own selections and you pay by ounce. It is easy to pour (sometimes too easy so watch if you just want to sample), but good news is what I tried was all delicious. My first choice was the caramel apple martini with the froth topping that they offer. It was delicious and perfect for the chilly night. We were in on a Thursday evening early and it was pretty quiet so we were able to chat with the bartender that was there. He was very friendly and provided details on how to use and where everything was that we could need. Definitely a place to stop in and relax while trying a wide range of beverages.

    A place for beer lovers and beer newbies alike -- Pour Choice is a must visit for beer folks. Essentially, you get a wristband that you scan and then you pay for however much you pour of each type of beer. They have rinsed stations for you to clean out your glass after sampling or you can grab a new glass entirely. I love that they have such a good variety of all types of beers, as well as ciders, cocktails, and rotating specials like tequila or sake. The inside is industrial and fun, with tons of seating and tables. I love that the long tables at the back are beer pong friendly. It's a great place for hanging out. They have tons of events and specials, like live music or comedy shows. Highly recommend!

    Came here for the holiday ciders! They had many options and a cool looking dining hall but the payment system is unnecessarily complicated and the staff didn't seem to fully understand the benefits and features of their systems. They also didn't seem very welcoming.

    What a surprise. I thought this might be gimicky or poor quality but I was pleasantly surprised. They have a good mix so you certainly should be able to find at least one thing that you would like to drink. They run from IPA's, Pilsner, Seltzer and even Gingerbread Martini and you can add bailey's cold foam on top. You can pour just a mouthful to see if you want to fill the glass. What a great way to be sure you will like your drink. They have full liquor bottles at the counter and had a special drink card on the bar so I am sure they can do other types of drinks as well. While it was great a "snack option" would have been appreciated. Still a great place !

    As I slowly get more into beer, this place has been on my list. As the location is on Mills, which is a perfect spot and a very chill environment! As My friends and I walked in, we were greeted. You put a card on file and is given a wristband to use to pour your beer. It's beer is a certain cost/oz. Yet nothing crazy as the highest amount i saw was like $1.85. I found myself truly liking the sours. On another note, this place has a bar and can make you a drink!

    Great chill stop to grab a drink or three! I've heard of the concept before but never been. The greeter explained everything- you basically pay by the ounce for the drink you want. You connect a payment method to a wristband, tap on the drink section to activate it, pour your drink and enjoy. They had a variety of different glassware- even flights so you can still have the same vibe as your favorite bar. I was surprised to not only see beer, but cocktails as well. It's a smaller space so you can relax. The greeter mentioned they are planning on expanding and I will for sure come back to check it out. They don't have any food offerings, but seem to connect with the other local business and invite you to order out and bring it in. Great way to get a small group together- especially for the variety and not worrying about splitting checks.

    Vodka espresso martinis
    Delaney S.

    On Friday night, it was my first time visiting. After seeing someone post online about an espresso martini on tap, I HAD to visit. My friend and I came in and was instantly greeted by the staff member at the front counter. Easy process of showing id's and having a card swiped upfront. We got bands on our wrists and were taken over to the taps to explain the process, which was very helpful. I tried the vodka and tequila espresso martini, and the tequila one was so smooth and delicious. The cream is very flavorful. The cherry lime seltzer was a bit too sweet for my liking, but the Tennessee lemonade was so good. There are lots of options available, from seltzers to beers to cocktails. The inside is really cute, and there were card games available to play with friends. This is a decent spot to hang with friends and have something there for everyone to drink.

    Pumpkin Espresso Martini
    Elease S.

    A friend of mine took me to Pour Choice for the first time a few months back and I was completely blown away. I love that it used a similar concept as some wine bars I've gone to - where you essentially get to try as many different types of wine (or in this case beers) as you'd like for a reasonable price. While they don't use a card system (instead they use a wristband), it is truly an amazing concept. So, I was happy to visit this establishment once more and try some of their seasonal cocktails! And naturally I was not left disappointed!! I had their pumpkin espresso martini and it was worth the hype! While I typically lean towards IPAs, I decided to continue to indulge in the espresso martinis. It was truly the highlight of the night! Beyond just their seasonal cocktails, they do have a great selection of varying beers. As noted, I lean towards IPAs, so I typically stay in that realm but from time to time I'll have a stout. As for the overall establishment, it was definitely bustling! They have games for anyone looking to play any games at the tables, they have TVs for anyone looking to watch any games, and for the part it is enough seating when not too packed. The staff was great. The environment was super lively! This is definitely a spot I will keep on one of my favorites list! Definitely pay them a visit if you have not done so already.

    Comedy show with professional comedians!
    Erin G.

    This review is for Mills 50 Comedy Show at the Pour Choice hosted by Helmut Productions. The show is a ticketed event every second Thursday of the month. Tickets are sold through Eventbrite that are a few dollars cheaper than at the door. I laughed out loud a lot and we all had so much fun. The Pour Choice concept is that customers are given a wrist band that will turn on one of 30+ taps and you can pour a sample or a full glass of beer, cider or wine. The selection here is a good mix and they have some approachable brews besides just craft selections. Similar spirits are grouped together for easy navigation. I really am a fan of beer samplers and I loved that they had shot size glasses as well as chalices, half pints and pint glassware. You can build your own sampler then go back for your favorites. Prices are posted next to each tap as they vary. The comedians in this full 2 hour show were professionals. It would take a Costco sized package of soap to wash their mouthes out, so if you are sensitive, I would steer clear. Not so much cussing but no topics seemed taboo. One thing I appreciated is there was only one slightly mild political joke. I really laughed hard and once the show started there was only a couple minute breaks between acts. Some of the comics used observational jokes and audience participation created spur of the moment laughs. Not just the front row. Most seats were taken and there was some folks standing up so get there at 7:30 or earlier. Good to know: -Helmut the host cautioned people to not talk during the time comedians were performing -Silence your phone because if it goes off you might get heckled -Self service drinks were available the whole show and afterwards -You cash out your tab before leaving, but drink tabs varied widely. My friend had a $4 glass of wine and my sampling and then beer added up to $12 -Food is not served

    I LOVED this place! The concept is so cool and laid back. Of course we're spent St.Patricks day. You pay $10 for the wristbands and whatever you drink inside you pay for of course. They charge by the ounce for everything on tap, they also have a bar you can get a drink from if it's not. The butterbeer espresso martini was to die for! Definitely plan on going back!

    amazing experience . great drinks, vibes and Ally and Zack rocked all night. amazing service! 10/10 experience

    Cranberry lime mule and chocolate peanut butter espresso martini with espresso cream topping
    Reilly R.

    Took my friend to her first pour choice experience! Pour choice is like a froyo set up but with alcohol. They give you a band which is attached to your card and you scan the band to use the spouts. You pay per oz and the price is dependent on the drink choice. They also have games you can play with your table which is lots of fun. The bar section is pretty cool too and I hadn't been there since September so it was neat to see! It was a do it yourself type place but the guys checking us in were nice!

    Pour choice is a cool concept I will say! They have about 40 different beer selections I think. Some wine, sake, cider and seltzer. When we went on Saturday I wasn't too impressed, there was about 20 taps that were out of order or had nothing in them at all. Only 1 hard seltzer to choose from and I think 1 cider. Unfortunately, If you don't absolutely love beer you really had no other options. You get a wristband you can hold up to the tap and pour your own amount of what you want. Pretty neat. You only pay for what you pour and you pay at the end. Your IDs are scanned so loyalty points are tied to your ID and you get get rewards after so many ounces poured. Good parking lot in the back of the building and good location. I do like the concept and the staff is very friendly, but their options lately have been limited and a lot of the taps were down. Would love to see more selection of cider and seltzer and more working taps! Overall a pretty cool place if you just wanna hangout for some casual beers.

There's a giant ice cube and a bamboo leaf or something and very little drink to drink. Not sure what to make of this because as soon as I was deciding if I liked it or not, it was gone. Wouldn't order this again. Second, I tried a $17 Adam & Eve. I wish the matcha was much stronger. There's a place in Tampa called Tori Bar that has a super duper matcha tasting cocktail. This one was much lighter. It was fine, not my favorite. Maybe I'd bring a date here sometime, but wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

I just apparently still believe that when oysters and $47 pasta appear on a menu, one should be able to hear the person sitting across the table. To be fair, the service throughout the evening was excellent and attentive, and the bourbon drinks ("Filthy Behavior") were genuinely good. We also ordered the croquettes, Caesar salad bites, 12 oysters, the spicy rigatoni with lump crab, golden rice with shrimp, and a discounted prosecco because it was oyster/prosecco Tuesday. The pasta itself was cooked properly, and the golden rice ended up being the least salty thing we ate, which unfortunately made it the standout. Everything else tasted as though the kitchen had recently suffered a tragic misunderstanding involving seawater. At one point we asked if the music was usually this loud because we genuinely couldn't hear each other speak. Our server kindly said she would check on it, but either management said no or the DJ entered a blood oath with the sound system. Conversation had become theoretical. Maybe this is the vibe now. Maybe dining is no longer about the food and meaningful conversation, with lighting so oddly bright--less intimate dinner, more "the club is closing, please locate your belongings"--while paying $220 for two people with automatic gratuity included. For me, the whole experience felt wildly overpriced--ordinary food dressed in extraordinary.
