County Clare boasts of pouring the most stout in the state of Wisconsin, which isn't surprising in the comfortable pub. But some bar patrons may not even think about the other part of the business, a hotel with more than two dozen guest suites.

But OnMilwaukee.com readers knew all about it and made the cozy public house at 1234 N. Astor St. the easy winner as best hotel bar for another year.

It's definitely an oasis if you're staying at "The Guesthouse," where rooms boasts a double whirlpool bath.

Whether you're staying there or not, the stout, along with a healthy selection of beers and imported whiskeys are a draw, as is the regular performances of traditional Irish music.

And, at this frigid time of the year, the wood-burning stove in the Saint's Snug is particularly enticing.
