Some bars have character accrued over decades. This “beer and bacon pub” has Lindeman’s Framboise, Three Floyds Alpha King and Delirium Tremens on tap (plus a seasonal or two always in rotation); a better-than-average jukebox; and a full menu of burgers and fish-and-chips. Where does the bacon come in? A few items, namely a giant, five-pound, bacon-wrapped meatloaf called “the Bomb” that comes with a challenge to finish it in 45 minutes. Their idea of a reward? A T-shirt. Ours? A stomach pump.
