Bier Ohne Grenzen (Beer Without Borders)

Posted by Uncle Jimbo on 2011-01-19 12:23:14

I am curious what you think the difference between a "pub" and a "bar" is in the US? I used to think a pub meant that it served food, but I have been corrected over the years. Now I just use "pub" and "bar" interchangeably for US establishments. I think that UK people will say "a pub is a place, while a bar is the object in a pub where the beer is dispensed". In MA places can have either a beer & wine license or a full liquor license. In some cities, Boston for example, food must be served if a place has a full liquor license. I think this kind of food + alcohol requirement is ridiculous. Reminds me too much of Utah, but that is just me.
