Bar Review of Suamico Ale House in Green Bay, WI
By END
May 6, 2011
So I think I just went to a bar that has the most beer I have ever seen on draught. There were literally five separate tap stations in order to create a beer heaven. By now we all know my personal beer heaven is a bottle of Bud Light or Coors Light BUT that doesn't mean I can't appreciate all that this particular place has to offer. The place I'm referring to is the Suamico Ale House. I know, it's corporate and that's not really my thing. There is NOTHING wrong with corporate. NOTHING. It's merely a matter of personal taste. I would rather go, well almost anyplace other than an Applebee's. And for the record, I have eaten at an Applebee's and I will again in the future due to my mama. She hearts Applebee's big-time. Now that that is cleared up, let's talk about how cool the Suamico Ale House is.
First up, this place is huge. As in, there's a large bar part, a large restaurant part and a large bowling alley part. Continuing with the "large" theme, their draught beer selection is also quite large. On tap the Suamico Ale House carries: Stella, Spotted Cow, Blue Moon, Hinterland Ale, Sam Adams, Sam Adams Seasonal, Bud, Bud Light, Bud Light Lime, Blue Moon, Blue Moon Seasonal, Coors Light, Miller Lite, MGD 64, Hi Life (gross, but true), Milwaukee's Best Light, Fat Tire, Point Seasonal, Leinie's Amber, Leinie's Honey, Leinie's Seasonal, Bass, Guinness, Smithwicks, New Castle, Hacker Pschorr and Dos Equis. I actually like drinking Dos Equis, but I prefer it in bottles, only because it has the XX on it and it makes me feel like I'm drinking poison. And I like to live dangerously. (Not really.) If you don't like beer then pick your favorite liquor concoction, they seriously have everything you can imagine. They also have a drink menu if your brain doesn't feel like working.
As I said earlier, Suamico Ale House is large. It has to be large to hold a bar, restaurant, bowling alley, pool tables, foosball table, shuffle board, darts, arcade golfing games, 30ish flat screen TV's and people. When you first walk in there's a host stand to the left and on the right is the bench like booths for the dining part. The middle is the bar with the bowling alley behind it.
There is also a banquet hall but I didn't see it. You need to call and make reservations to use that room for your party, business meeting or whatnot. The service at the Ale House was awesome. The bartender was super friendly and quick. My partner in crime and I ordered a Coors Light bottle and a Bloody Mary. The beer was 3 bucks and Mary was 6. You may be thinking 6 bucks for a Bloody Mary?? But this mother was tall. Like super tall. And strong. Mary was really, really strong. It's totally worth it. There are also food and drink specials, I would call to see what the deal is for the day. I do know that all day, every day they have 5 for $12 buckets of Miller Lite and other Miller products. Suamico Ale House was fun. Fun atmosphere, fun bartender and fun drinks.
