I second Delirium Tremens. Belgium is like Candyland for beer lovers.
I think the criteria was “the most expensive”.
They also left out the “NO SCUM ALLOWED SALOON” in White Oaks, NM.
But I can understand why it was left off the list......
The name alone would prohibit most of the people reading this article from entering.
I totally agree.
Any list like this is dependent on subjective opinion of the writer(s).
The worth of any bar, pub or tavern is totally dependent on the clientele.
Every bar is different and each bar is a different experience.
There are rowdy bars, high class bars, low class bars, sports bars, piano bars, bars with peanut shells on the floor, biker bars and endless more that I have never been to.
The only thing they have in common is that people return to the ones that they feel comfortable in and enjoy the company of the regulars.
Couldn’t imagine enjoying myself at 90% of those places. More of a tiki bar/dive bar guy. Our local tiki bar was where Alan Jackson filmed “It’s 5 O’clock Somewhere”. Though it’s much different now, still a pretty cool place.

The Jug Handle Inn - Bar & Grill in Cinnaminson, NJ
Just off of route 73 near the Betsy Ross bridge ramp (Route 90).
Great wings.
I'd tell you to say hello to Vince, but he's probably long gone by now.
Retired & fishing on his boat, or dead.
The best bar is the one that will serve me drinks. And maybe a sandwich if I’m hungry. And cheap. Gotta be cheap.
I’d put Mac’s Club Duce, or the Duce Bar, in Miami Beach, and Husong’s in Ensenada, Baja, Mexico on that list. Both are old-school comfortable places to drink and share conversation.
Worthless list without Put-In-Bay’s (Ohio) Beer Barrel Saloon which claims the longest bar in the world.
The makes a killing on only three months of tourist traffic to the island every year.

In the meantime, I’ll add two more of my old-school favorites to the list in honor of Ernest Hemingway: Sloppy Joes in Key West, and the Casino Club in Ketchum, Idaho.
If it ain’t got a dirt floor it ain’t a good bar.
“I prefer the local dive bars. Good people”.
The “Billy Goat” outside Durango, Colo. is a local dive that used to have that reputation. I’ve never been in the place but that’s what I hear.
The Sagrada Familia was awesome, but I had a blast in Barcelona.
Yeah, ain’t they great?
I’m glad they left the one in my basement off of the list.
I don’t want the traffic.
Mine too, and I can (almost) guarantee a good crowd.
I didn’t see Full Throttle, Iron Horse or Broken Spoke so apparently they don’t have any world class bars.
No “Best Bars” in a City I would visit. Did they consider the “Ice House” in New Castle, Indiana?
