Steakhouse Blended Burger: Beef and Wild Mushroom Slider with Truffle Brie Cheese Fondue, Arugula and Truffle Potato Chips on a Sesame Seed Bun – $6.25
The steakhouse burger was phenomenal (if you like mushrooms). It’s definitely a contender for our top 7 items of the festival. It’s perfectly cooked, with a mushroom-forward flavor that melds with cheese to create a luscious burger. The potato chip was fine but frankly, unnecessary, though it did add a bit of crunch. Again we appreciate the upgraded sesame bun.

*NEW* Impossible™ Montreal-Style Burger Slider with Cheddar and Tomato Jam on a Sesame Seed Bun – $6.00
The Impossible Burger was great. The vegan cheese was typical plastic but the burger itself was amazing. It was cooked perfectly and the tomato was a good accompaniment. The sesame bun adds a touch of class. We give this 5/7 but vegans will probably give it 7/7.

Smoked Corned Beef with House-Made Potato Chips, Cheese Curds, Pickled Onions and Beer-Cheese Fondue – $6.50
The beer cheese fondue carries a lot of the dish, but the rest of it isn’t as memorable. When you get a chip with the pickled onion, the meat and the fondue, it does have a really good balance in terms of its flavor profile, having something salty with something a little bit sour, and an added crunch from the chip. There are lots of different textures, but without the fondue, this dish wouldn’t be as great.

*NEW* Deschutes Brewery Black Butte Porter, Bend, OR (5.5% ABV) – $5.75 for 6 oz., $9.75 for 12 oz.
From Deschutes Brewery: “With notes of rich chocolate and coffee, a luscious creaminess and a roasted finish, Black Butte Porter doesn’t only have fans‚ it has followers. Tastings, pairings, gatherings‚ there’s nothing this classic can’t do.”
Four Virtues Bourbon Barrel Zinfandel, California ($18/bottle) – $6.50
Total Wine & More describes this wine: “Deliciously complex and silky smooth Lodi Zinfandel, featuring flavors of bright raspberry, cherry and juicy blackberry, framed by nuanced layers of caramel, vanilla and toasty oak.”
Swine Brine:Jim Beam Bourbon ($15/bottle), Apple Cinnamon Cider, Lemon Juice and Dijon Mustard – $11.50
In 2017, this surprisingly good drink was made with Evan Williams bourbon. In recent years, they’ve switched to the more well-known Jim Beam bourbon, but no matter – it’s still good! The Swine Brine is definitely one of the most unique cocktails offered this year at the festival, and many were surprised at just how good (read: weird) this ended up being. It’s a combination of apple juice, lemon juice, bourbon, and mustard, which sounds pretty terrible. Needless to say, everyone in our group grimaced before they tried it, but they ended up enjoying it more than expected. WARNING: It may not be for everyone. Also, don’t dip the pork in.
