The American saloon was born in the 19th century and died with Prohibition in 1920. But the bar, as an institution, never went away. In Milwaukee, the corner bar is still where you go for a beer and a brat. In New Orleans, the bar is where you go for a Sazerac and a story. In every small town in America, the bar is the community center, the unemployment office, the gossip hub, and the place where you celebrate, mourn, and wait out the snow.
