kash, you need to come to missoula. famous bar within walking distance to my house where cute bartenders will pour you a double tall (in a pint glass, and it's more like at least a triple) of good brands for $4.00. and that's all day, every day. James Lee Burke based a lot of his characters on its regulars. They actually serve something resembling Louisiana food, too.

I know a lot of people that swear on Maker's.
I've always liked Woodford's reserve, and Crown.

It's certainly equivalent to Jack or Jameson, though.

i agree. the story is, Maker's was bottom of the barrel junk and then they started a campaign to turn it into premium. This included a new recipe and red cap. well, if you'll pardon the expression, all that happened was the cap. could be fiction. dunno.

I have a friend in Rural Washington state. They all have Bars in their houses. I mean full bars with a bar and bar stools. They congregate at each others house.
Also, you can brew beer about 10 times better than what you can buy for a bout 10 cents a bottle. It's easy too.

where's the cheapest bar? i mean the bar run on the bare minimum, basically the hobby bar. Instead of dropping a few grand a year drinking, guy makes his own place to go to that people can drink nightly for next to nothing.
Would you go to a place where the furnishings were all just shite from garage sales/goodwill, 3-4 kegerators with Natural lite, milwalkee best, pabst blue, Franzia Zinfindel, well vodka/bourbon/rum?
the blacks and trash would over run that shite in a heart beat.

I've heard the same thing about Crown Royal. Personally, I like Makers for sipping. Jim Beam for everything else.

In Baton Rouge...TJ Rib's (at least the one on siegen) usually has has PBR for a dollar on draft, high life is $1.50 (this was last year, might have gone up).
Thirsty Tiger on Coursey has high life and PBR bottles for a buck, all the time.

No doubt about it.
On a related note... Not sure how long this has been happening, but at Kona Grill they add the tip to every check...wasn't a large party, just two of us having drinks.
