Yeah. I think there are almost as many (27) breweries, (4) distilleries, and (8) wineries in the state than there are liquor stores (44).

It's odd here. And expensive.

Not surprised. I've actually been to a few brew pubs in Utah. Just playing on stereotypes.

And there aren't ten volumes worth of them.

I am not making this up : I was in Utah about 10 years ago and went to some chain-restaurant (I think Chilis) in Logan, Utah.
I ordered a "Makers with a splash of coke" and the waiter said "OK, I've never heard of that but I can ask our bartender if he knows about that drink. If he doesn't, would you like something else?"
So I say "Sure, Knob Creek with a splash of coke"
And he just looks confused and shockingly tells me he hasn't heard of that drink either.
Luckily the bartender had....

One other strange thing, the waiter had an eastern-european accent. Sort of german-sounding. I asked where he was from and he said "Here, born in Utah".

I always forget about that crap when ordering a drink in a bar @ Salt Lake airport connecting on a trip to the West Coast & think that I have gone back in time 40-50 years.

Just for amusement I want to ask the bartender if they sell cold beer or if it is only hot like it was in Starkville back in the day.

It's the Zion Wall at restaurant bars that gets me. They have to mix the drinks behind the wall. I guess so that a child doesn't see them making a drink and become Satan right there in the restaurant. I guess it works because I've never seen it happen.

Then again, maybe it has. Little Billy at the next table was a complete ******* the other night. Now I'm thinking it wasn't his fault, he must have just happened to glance over the Wall and see that which should not be seen.

But other than the quirkiness of the liquor laws it's actually a pretty amazing place to live.
