Ha! Post up ST, I'd rather be in the mountains thinking about a pub than in a pub thinking about the mountains.....
Next opportunity to visit Placerville check out this water hole, Bricks on Main Street with friendly patrons and Aussie/climber/skier bar tender Chris!

the thing about the bricks:
acoustics is all wrong, in my opinion.
you'd think that brick would issue a nice
report, but on a busy night,
one has to yell his thoughts.
right down the street, at cascada,
same crowd density, less noise.
i don't know, maybe it's the kiwi bartender

We just moved to a town called La Verne. Our "local" is a place called Lordsburg Taphouse and Grill.
Great atmosphere, friendly patrons and owners, lots of sports on TV, decent food, great beer on tap. Will get a pic next time out.

Lorenzo,
The Irish Pub in Glen Echo (used to be Trav's) is now a high scale place. You still see a few climbers there (I went there after PATC-MS Carderock Wednesdays a few times), but the prices are a bit high for the average climber, particularly the food.

As pubs go, I can't really say, but it's universal that more suds are sold when the publican, the tapster, the puller, whatever...
is friendly and knows his beers and their merits.
Some can't help being gorgeous, either.
17th St. Public House has no juke, no live music, no darts, just beer and wine. It's all good, too.
I'm heading down that way now.
See ya!

If these places could talk, a thanks to all who have posted. Cracked me up seeing the Fairview Fritz and wow Lorenzo that mural is a piece of time. Can't help to think that most of ST prefers to abide in the safety of their own homes, so here's to you in the spirit of this thread, "here's to these spirits and to this watering hole, may we drink beyond confusion."
