Lakewood

Lota's Goat is apparently a dive bar's dive bar... if you know what I mean. Located somewhere around Lakewood, Lota's Goat is one of those places that you just have to like, if only for it's sheer unwillingness to die. Bar padding is held up by red duct tape, and the furniture is as old as the dive itself. Lota's Goat is even open in the mornings for hardcore weekend (or weekday?) drinkers. Lota's Goat also features a stage for live music and karaoke, plus a vintage arcade machine. Oh, and did I mention that Busch Light is only $1.25 from 7 to 10 am? That's right. AM beer specials.
