<VV> Re:Buffalo area--Convention info-- potables

[Gary Swiatowy]

Hank, John Labatt's Extra Stock is no longer available on the US 
side.....sigh
Labatt's 50 is now called Labatt Canadian on the US side........still my 
favorite.

In Buffalo for the most part, Labatt, Molsen, OV are on tap, and considered 
local.

Most Buffalonians turn their nose up at weak beers like Coors, preferring a 
full bodied beverage.

There are still some local micro-brews around, Flying Bisons, and some 
selections from Ellicottville.

The Ellicottville strip is usually for a younger crowd, though this area has 
most likely more bars per capita than anywhere else.

Drinking Downtown, generally the Anchor Bar, hey, that is THE place to go 
for wings anyway as it is the original home of the Chicken Wing, and you may 
need copious amounts of beer to wash them down. Remember, wings aren't worth 
eating unless you get them "HOT", and they are dripping with Franks red 
hot.............
