Salt Lake City-AP -- Some Olympic visitors are surprised to learn they can get a beer in Salt Lake City, Utah.In fact, there are more watering holes in the city than there were in the last two sites of the Winter Olympics: Nagano, Japan and Lillehammer, Norway.Still, there's one basic question you'll need to ask your bartender -- and that's the alcohol content of the brew you're about to order. Most domestic beers in Utah are weaker than your normal beer.Salt Lake City bartender Tessa Evans says if you want the "good stuff" you'll need to order an import.She tends bar in a restaurant -- where until recently state law forbid putting wine on display. Evans says that law changed to accommodate the horde of Olympic visitors. Her "bar" opens at eleven o'clock each morning.And officially, there are no "bars" in Utah. The pubs are called private clubs -- you pay a membership to join and you get to bring up to five friends.
