Not even prohibition closed its doors... I'll drink to that.McSorley's Ale House in New York opened in 1854 and hasn't closed its doors since...
Becky turned me on to a list of the ten oldest bars in the U.S., which led me to the new and improved list of the ten oldest bars. Sadly, I've only been to two of the twenty bars-- the Pirates House in Savannah, GA and Middleton's Tavern in Annapolis, MD.
Court and Jess, guess we'll making a few trips to New York since most of the oldest bars seem to be there...
Here are the lists... let me know if you've been to any of these places, or if you have some free time for a road trip in the near future. :)

Love that my name is in your blog attached to a list of bars - greeeaaat. I've been to the Pirate House - with you, actually. That'll probably be my only claim on this one.
hmmm... what does that mean for my name? :) oh well...
well, if it makes you feel any better, your dad's name is on my blog and indirectly connected to the lionel ritchie drinking game... for the record, i LOVE that you sent me that list. i guess your comment is disclaimer enough? ;)
and it makes me smile that you've been to a bar with me, although i'm pretty sure that we didn't actually drink (at least not anything with wheat in it) while we were there that time... cheers
he, he... just thought about claire's fruity drinks she used to like.. some kind of sour something... wasn't half bad... think you might have even liked it ;)
