Ber’s
By Scott Heiner
One of the newest eateries in town is Ber’s located at the Lakeside
Plaza across from the post office. As I
walked up to the window, my first question was It comes from Amber Clark of
Laketown who, when growing up has always gone by “Ber.”
Furthermore, saying the word “ber,” drawing it out as “burrrrrrrr”
expresses the natural reaction to drinking ice-cold drinks. Fittingly, ice-cold drinks are the specialty
of Ber’s. Amber has deep experience in
food service, having worked many years at Quick & Tasty, Firehouse Pizza,
and most recently Café Sabor.
Drawing on that experience, Amber has come up with a
milkshake that is thicker and creamier than most in the area, but at a lower
price. Her formula lasts longer and
melts slower. Ber’s serves a wide
variety of milkshakes, but they also have a line of unique mixed sodas. I was impressed with their diverse selection
of creative and interesting milkshakes and mixed drinks.
Their milkshakes included Cheesecake, Chocolate Raspberry,
Mint Oreo, Reese’s PB Cup, S’mores, and Soda Float. I ordered the Raspberry Lime which was an
intriguing slant on a regular raspberry shake.
Their mixed sodas are called “Ber Necessities” and include
such interesting items as Bear Laker (Coke-Raspberry-Vanilla-Cream), YOLO
(Coke-Coconut-Fresh Lime), Ricky Rumble (7-Up-Grape-Fresh Lime), Campfire (Root
Beer-Toasted Marshmallow-Cream) and Sucker Punch (Lemonade-Grapefruit-Fresh
Lime). If their menu of mixed sodas is
not diverse enough, Ber’s also lets you “Build Your Own,” choosing your
ingredients for a custom mix.
Ber’s hasn’t overlooked kids either. They offer drinks especially targeted to the
younger set with names like Pinkalicious, Big Fish, Quack Attack and Bear Lake
Monster which include gummy Sour Patch Kids, sharks, ducks and alligators
respectively.
Ber’s has certainly come up with every imaginable
combination of ice-cold drinks, sure to please anybody’s particular taste. Berrrrrrrrr!
