(Downtown, Hannibal, MO)

Scooter’s 1873rd bar, first visited in 2026.

I really needed a good coffee and had been unable to find one in downtown Springfield. Hannibal was the city where we expected to need gas, so I found a coffee shop there (Java Jive) to navigate to. The other half of the convoy arrived 15 minutes before I did, so rather than wait in their truck they decided to head into a bar they noticed across the street.

I joined them there for a beer upon my arrive, choosing a Bobber Lager by Logboat Brewing.

Mark Twain Brewing Company

(Downtown, Hannibal, MO)

Scooter’s 1357th bar, first visited in 2019.

I’ve had their beer several times, but this was my first visit to the brewery. We rolled in late — pretty close to closing time — but we were still able to get some appetizers and drinks in!

This is a magnificent tap room in a large, historic building.

I had their King Arthur’s Court Imperial IPA, Rambler’s Red Ale, A Wee Bit Foggy Scotch Ale, and Passport To Russia (Imperial stout). Mark Twain would have been pleased when them all.
