The Tavern is not only the best bar in St. Cloud, but it's the only one in town with Boddington's, and it's also the only one in town with a giant (and strikingly beautiful) tin Grain Belt sign adorning the wall. In fact, if you look at the picture that's linked in the post (click on The Tavern in St. Cloud if anyone is curious) you'll see the table that Kerrie and I (and Doug, or some friends from Baker's Craft and Hobby) would sit and drink our sorrowed sorrows away.

Boy do I remember those Pilsner Urquels at the tavern, even though I shouldn't after all I poured down my throat. I think above all, the Tavern on Germain remains my most cherished bar in St. Cloud. #1 reason of course being the Pilsner, and the fact that you can take your time to actually enjoy it. Depending on the time of day, there are very few bars in St. Cloud where you are welcome to savor a beer. Those are some strong words for a beer drinking town, but case in point, I will distinguish a differnce between the Apple Bee's and TGIF of S.C. with downtown, Granite City excluded, although on the border line. Speaking only of which of downtown, few bars are open in the day time when I usually would like a beer, I'll emphasize "a" to hide my raging alchoholism. The only two places downtown where you can treat yourself to a beer with out being molested by St. Cloud Super Man would be the Tavern or that place that J.Scott sings at on Wed. Nights next to Taco Johns. Those are the only places I have savored a beer and enjoyed it during a mid day break. Any article about beer is a good article, salute!
