Because if you want to know how your grandpa probably spent his beer drinking time you'll find out how he did it at the Red Top Tavern. The bar is a throwback to the times when Hank Williams was in his prime and Harry Truman was President of the US. It's a long time logger bar where the mill hands still show up after work in their Carharts and red suspenders. The Red Top serves more than beer and you can get a bite to eat but the best part perhaps is the experience of sitting in a semi-circle of folks who "tell it like it is" while they sip their favorite beverage.
