Best Bars in America
Best Bars - Esquire
I've been to 3 of these:
Doyle's (Jamaica Plain - about 1/2 mile from my apartment)
Greasewood Flat (this place north of Scottsdale, AZ, in the middle of nowhere, rocks!)
Hotel Congress - Tucson

I have never been to ANY of the bars listed in California. Any idea what the criteria to make the list was?

No idea, but it must be based partly on user ratings (you can rate them if you click on the names). You can also recommend places on the top of that page.
I've been to one other on that list. Vesuvio in San Fran. That's where Kerouac and other beatniks used to hang out.

Well I never remember the names of bars I've been to around the country....but if I were to recommend a really good bar that I go to in Columbus, it would be "Bodega" on High Street. If you like your beers, they have over 50 beers ON TAP alone....the best selection for any bar in Columbus IMO!

Seems to me... that by definition... if these were the bast bars in America... I wouldn't remember ever being there.
Yet, I do have recollection of being in a few of these places.
Odd.
