Hinterlands Brewery in the Title Town area, just outside the Green Bay Packers stadium is a modern brewery restaurant with a rustic feel. The cement floor industrial warehouse look is covered in deer, elk, moose and other horned animals. A massive wood burning fireplace adds authentic rustic feel. With all the hard surfaces the space is echoey and loud. Don't hope to have a quiet conversation. Since we were sat next to the roaring fire, I can attest that from ten feet away, I was roasting. I am sure in cold, snowy, Green Bay days it is cozy.
On this occasion, I decided to treat myself to a nice steak. Given the motif of the restaurant, I thought the porterhouse steak was sure to be delicious and at $38.00 worth the splurge. It wa advertised as a wood-fire grilled pork Porterhouse with pumpkin gnocchi, kale, apple-walnut aggro-dolce. Ordered medium rare I commented on how much I wanted a steak. I was very disappointed in what I was served as a well done piece of meat. I realize now my mistake was in not understanding the artful language of the menu... pork porterhouse equals pork chop. Not a beef porterhouse steak... apparently the server also didn't realize the confusion, because after accepting an order of medium rare, he also returned from conveying my concern about the well done meat to the cook with an explanation that, "The chef said that's the way he cooks them." You would think I would have realized that the meat was pork, but I was convinced based on price and the Porterhouse description. Layered in sticky sweet glaze with nuts and berries, it was an OK pork chop, but a horrible beef steak. I admit my mistake in not reading every word but it doesn't make me less disappointed.
All-in-all, I can't recommend this restaurant. The atmosphere is loud. The service was not great. The prices were high. Moreover, the fact that not only I, but my friend and apparently the server were confused by the menu is indicative that it might be a little too artfully worded.
