Default Snit

When you order a Bloody Mary on a Sunday morning in Minnesota
it comes with a snit. A snit is a little juice glass full of
draught beer for a chaser. It would be an interesting bit of
regional etymology to figure out how a beer chaser came to be
known as a snit.

Anyway, it's a damn good idea and the Bloody Mary's at the
Gunflint Tavern on the Lake are damn good too. For 8 bucks
you get a huge Bloody Mary with olives, pickle, celery and
a nice prawn perched on the side of the glass. And a snit.

Cheers from the north shore !!

Not the custom in the Buckeye State, in fact I had never heard of it but it
sounds like a good idea. There has to be some relation to the phrase 'in a
snit.'
