Interesting list. At least one of these places (OH) wasn’t on RB (I just fixed that). Some have only one or two ratings, so I guess wouldn’t make the RB list of top places.

I could quibble with a couple, but not many.

It always makes me nervous when I see lists like this, though, because it sometimes means a huge increase in traffic to thee places, which makes them less appealing to me. It just means I would seek them out during less busy times though.

That place seems like a highly questionable choice. But hey, if they only stopped in a bar or two here, it’s what ends up on the list.

Ya, read it with the usual expectation of yelling at it while reading, but was more or less pleasantly in agreeance with it. I like that they actually explained their choices and the article has an air of opinion moreso than "THIS IS THE BEST BAR IN THE STATE PERIOD. WE ARE GOD."

sushi bar with 44 taps, all craft/no macros, good number of local beers, flights available, even a mead on tap. seems worthy to me.

The one quibble I’d have is that since they’re a sushi place, why not offer some decent Japanese beers? But maybe that’s down to distro. In DC the sushi places have Coedo, Shiga Kogen, etc.

True, and the fact that Sandusky has ANY worthy beer destination is noteworthy.

Wasn’t it widely concluded that most of the positive ratings of Mermaid Bar (FL) are fake?

Also, I’ve been to 5 of them, though I haven’t been to most of those states!

That was the word on the street. But recent ratings are from non-locals with lots of other place ratings. I’ve never been, so I can’t confirm one way or the other.

Only been to two. I was surprised they did not choose Falling Rock in CO.
