Swig - Downtown P-burg



Being such a nice night out my husband and I took a stroll downtown Perrysburg to check out the much buzzed about new hot dog and beer spot, Swig. Modeled after a popular 'dog' stand in Chicago called Hot Dougs - "The Sausage Superstore and Encased Meat Emporium" (www.hotdougs.com). Chicagoans wrap the block waiting in line for the unusual selections of upscale sausages. While Swig has not ventured into the same sausage options as rabbit, boar or duck they do make the more typical options in-house everyday. With a variety of toppings all for around $3.50. More interested in the beer selection? With more than two dozen beers on tap such as Magic Hat #9, Boddington's and a selection from Great Lakes Brewing Co. you are sure to find something to quench your thirst.

With a side patio looking out onto Louisiana Ave. you are in for great people watching. You will most likely see a familiar face strolling by who will be more than happy to join you for a dog and a brew!

Swig does not have a website yet but I have been told it is in the works. Till then you can check out the menu and beer selection at 219 Louisiana Ave., Perrysburg, OH
