Brew Movies

Susan at a vintage restored railway station in Salt Lake City, the Grand Union. Utah is surely a strange state, mighty religious but one gets the scary feeling it could all 'kick off' at any moment !! Perhaps there are deep psychological traumas caused by alcohol urge repression - for example we saw the Jazz (Utah's NBA team), and in the 5 man team two of them have the surnames 'Boozer' and 'Brewer' - it just can't be a coincidence :-)).

Nevertheless we enjoyed downtown SLC, and found a very very cool Cinema/Pub combo 'Brewvies' where you can watch films, chat, get food and drink, with people wandering in and out of the cinema all the time - we saw 'Cloverfield' which was a bit intense for that venue IMHO, would better suit old standards we think. http://www.brewvies.com/
Here's Susan in the brewvies cinema in SLC with a pint, the text in the background is on the cinema screen, happens to be an advert before the film.



Snow was fantastic in Park City :-) This sign was seen at the Pig Pen Saloon. For a utah ski resort this is an excellent bar, in fact by any standard it is worthy. However, our extensive independent tests show that at 3 feet from the bar you can still order, pay for and reach the beer. It needs to be 4.2 feet if it's ever going to work ;-) ttfn xx

  • We also enjoyed the Pig Pen Saloon apres ski in Park City; very authentic, and the table service was exceptional. As with all customers, we are now "members."
