This is my favorite all time bar. End of Story. :-)

The Rhino is officially my favorite Pub in Montana. 50 Taps...many flavors. Brick outer walls, and Cabin-like rustic wood inside to make ya relax; and just what Taxidermerist did the work I couldn't tell ya - but an actual RHINO is forever charging right thru the brick west wall into the Bar. The Critter must be from North Dakota, cuz Montanans generally have more sense. On the other hand...I'd do whatever necessary to get to this bar too. Students tend to pack the Rhino on Thursday Pint Night. Summer geezer solftball leaguers on Tuesdays. (I'm gonna be in trouble for that!!) Perhaps the charging Rhinosceros Totem explains why the BeerTender tolerates it when my Harley pals rumble Hogs right thru the place, from back door to front, during a Bachelor party. Now, these are totally sweet down-to-earth folks. But I suppose they're called Legends for um, SOME sortof good reason(s). Lest you think H-D dudes are some kind of exclusive society, consider again the content of character. At least one of the scruffy Montana regulars may grin as he hands you a tidy businss card, with his name and club on it, Like this: Red Legends -- In Our Own Minds. 406-phone # (If you need a card-carrying union boilermaker u found him!) Beware the Rhino Hog women, however. They've joined some sort of we don't want new friends, no-BS or guff, even-at-a-bar Society. Less winsome, less fun, by far than any given HD dude I EVER met, anywhere - and I visited Jails for 10 years. Believe me when I say I don't need to hear you brag about packin stoopid heat on yer bike sis. Didya notice yer now in why bother concealing your tool country? Believe me, no vivacious city woman with higher education has ANY DESIRE to mess with yer dudes. So CHILL. The freakin Rhino is about the Beer - and the bikes, fer Chrissake. To be a REAL Montana Legend, you gotta get over yerselves. Trust me, sis, chill & you'll be just fine. The good news: Guys have learned to master their testosterone. Gals can too! i Locals are generally friendly, so chat a bit. You might get invited to a BBQ or to play baseball. If you are worthy, you might even get invited to the FUPS Carnival. Parked outside the Rhino (if it's not Fire season (or Goin to the Sun Run weekend - July 4th annually) you'll be lucky to see a line-up of old Indians - possibly more in this Club than anywhere else on earth. And an amazing variety of 'em...some in all kinds of dis-repair - rescued rusty from some snow-bound farmers garage - and somehow brought back to life. Montana folks aren't rich (you don't need to be) but we sure like to have fun in the great outdoors - so Montana is a natural Harley culture. These babies are well-loved and still running. The Chef on a scooter (I mean a real one: TINY) among those Harley dudes COOKS, so heck yes, do their BBQ!! But don't steal his scoot as a joke - as he'll be mad all year. (It's been done. And he deserves better, dammit!!) You hear the HD rumble all summer in Missoula, as riders head over to Surgis, South Dakota and back. White Trailers you see by the highway are Feds' listening stations. On the job, violatin yer personal civil rights w/o probable cause of ANY crime. Better watch your mouth cuz the bastards probably will arrest SOMEbody to try to justify their jobs...even tho they've been exiled to the West w/o being told Dick Cheney's asbestos deals - and Geologist's Bosses should be their chief targets. Heck, the crimes of concern to locals aren't even on their radar. Like what the Colstrip Mine and coalbed methane are doing to the bio-region's rivers. Or how badly the local Courts treat Indians. Now that stuff is CRIME. Oh, yeah, about The Rhino. DOZENS of Tasty micro-brews, on rotating Taps. Yes, you can sample before you commit to a Pint. Staff know their stuff, and can help you choose a fav. Kindly Tip well...and stay as long as you like. On a Full Moon - draft beer is just $2 a Pint... even my Guiness. Boy, O Boy, I love a full moon in Montana! It can get dang hot inside in summer, so bring sunglasses & do the back patio for outdoor air. The only things that could make me like the Rhino better would be live music and Food. There are PLENTY of places to get that within 4 blocks, as this spot is right in the downtown core. Be sure to eat dinner first, cuz you'll wanna stay, and in June it's still daylight at 10 PM, and you might not realize it till late - and ya gotta eat, drink a gallon of water, and get ya some shut-eye, & return to do it all again. Anyone who wants a rider from PDX to the Rhino - from May to October - please contact me. I'll buy your beer. A pitcher if it is the last week of JUNE.

Love this bar. It's my favorite place in the Zoo to kick back and enjoy a cold one with friends. The bartenders are not pretentious, and neither is the old school crowd...I usually avoid all bars in the downtown area on weekends because I don't like to deal with the college kids but whenever there is a concert or great event, my friends and I meet here. The beer selection is great (50 beers on tap) and the bartenders make good mixed beverages. To be perfectly honest, Anne makes the best Bloody Mary in town (besides Snowbowl); on top of that, the bar makes their own infused vodkas to use in mixed drinks. During the summer, the bar has an outdoor patio area they build up and break down every day for ultimate summer relaxation. My only dislike about the patio: they tend to break it down way to early at night for Zootown party goers. The bar has Golden Tee, pool and shuffleboard for bar patrons as well as cups of peanuts for those in need of a snack fix.

Great comfortable bar! Come here often, they serve great Caesars! Nice and spicy with all the trimmings. yum.
(4)Grant S.
Great beer and alcohol selection, can become quite busy most any night of the week, especially weekends. The bartenders here are friendly, the night crew being what I've had most of my experience with. Sean, Albert and Jason rock! Also the door guy Dave is pretty nice as well. Recommended!
(4)Amanda W.
Still this place is amazing.. Go out back to the smoke shack, enjoy your beer inside the shack and talk to the bumbling idiots who come through.. Great waste of 30 min.. Try Racer, it's a beer from NorCal.. Completely worthwhile. Get a bucket of peanuts for me..
(5)Joel S.
Great tap selection. Skanks and mimbos. Enjoy!
(3)Tyler T.
Best bar in town. Earthy, unpretentious, and absolutely stellar bartenders. Top-notch monthly scotch tastings. Endless peanuts. Music is somehow always good. Sometimes get overflow on busy weekend nights from the regular college trash bars, but hey, it is Missoula after all. I love you, Rhino. Never change.

My boyfriend and I visited this bar during a road trip through Montana and Yellowstone. Although I'm not a beer person, I love dive bars, and this bar is pleasantly divey without being gross. It is clearly beloved by the locals and was full of patrons, but not to the point of being claustrophobic. The atmosphere was friendly, the bartenders likewise. I enjoyed the miscellaneous paraphernalia decorating the walls, very entertaining. My boyfriend enjoyed his beer and was amazed by how inexpensive it was (we're from Seattle) and how many options there were.
(4)Heather M.
Peanut shells on the floor, good crowd, lots of beer - oh yeah, this is a great little dive in downtown Missoula. The shuffleboard in the back of the bar is a bonus. You can't beat inebriated shuffleboard and shit talking for hours upon beers on random Friday nights. The beer selection is good. For some reason, I started drinking Framboise and continued that trend all evening. Framboise amongst peanut shells. Not a bad night at all.
(4)Tristan N.
They have a plethora of beers on tap to choose from and like other reviewers said, their bartenders are very down to earth and not pretentious.
(3)Adam S.
Very chill bar, great craft beer selection, copious amounts of peanuts, and Phish in the background. A quintessential cozy, friendly bar.
(5)David B.
Awesome pub, cool vibe. Amazing, AMAZING single malt scotch selection. Great prices with the scotchy scotch as well. I'll return.

A ridiculously successful effort on so many levels. You would expect that somewhere in western Montana--probably in many somewheres, you might expect--that someone would figure out how to make money running a bar. And they would get good at it. The Rhino is Exhibit A in the case for good business models in this town. First up, stuff I don't really care about: bacon vodka. Served in their already-legendary bloody marys, they make quite a combination. Other stuff I don't care about: fancy multi-ingredient shots served for the delectation of UM sorority girls and other coeds. These rolled out by the trayful both times I was here. They were clearly made with care, though I didn't listen for the names or look too closely at the ingredients. What I do care about: the beer. dozens of taps, lined up in faucet after faucet all in two rows on the barback. Clean lines. Mainstream favorites as well as imports and tons of local and regional craft beers. Big beat-up bartop. Comfortable stools. Comfortable booths and tables. Peanut shells everywhere. Friendly people everywhere, students and townies alike. Pool and shuffleboard. No fights or aggro at all either time I was here. Very friendly bartenders who know their lineup pretty well. This is the beer bar of choice in Missoula from what I can see.

I will come out and say it: I love this bar. But really, since my bestie (and Rhino fanatic) Rob moved away, I have little occasion to go. But this isn't the bar you take your folks. This isn't the bar you take a date. This is a bar you take your oldest friend to get drunk and eat peanuts. That being said, I love it--and their "50 Beers Around the World" dealio is so awesome I can hardly stand it (Rob completed this task 4 different times...). They have a lot on tap and know how to pull it. And in the summer they have limoncello!
(3)Rod F.
The beer selection alone makes this my favorite bar in Missoula. Als&Vics is close behind. I'm not much for mixed drinks, but they poor a strong Crown & Coke and make fantastic Bloody Mary's. Great Bar!
(5)Colleen B.
Yelp told me this place has the best bloody marys in Missoula. They weren't kidding! Beer selection is great, too!
(4)Carissa P.
First thing's first, they have the best homemade lemonade that I have ever had. Maybe it was the vodka that I had them spike it with that's doing the talking here, but I think there's more to it than that. I'm not a fan of super sweet anything. I buy a homemade lemonade and it better be at least a little sour. This one was the perfect balance of sweet and sour and then I put a double of vodka in there life doesn't get a whole lot better than this big glass of ice cold spiked lemonade, well, that is until I found out that any double shot was on special and I paid only $3.50 for this beverage. I however became obsessed with the vodka lemonade, so I must apologize because I have no information about any of the plethora of beers they have on tap. They have so very many options between thier (and I'm guessing here and it may be a low ball estimate) 25 or so beers on tap and pretty much any liquor you could think of it's safe to say that there is something for anyone. I also will not say that it is a dive bar atmosphere, to me it is rustic and very Montana. I suppose I can understand why someone who doesn't know and love Montana like I do might call it a dive bar, what with the peanut shells on the ground and the worn wood flooring, but it is by no means dingy, creepy, or divey. The people and staff are really friendly and the service is fantastic and it appears that the customer base appears to be mostly locals. This is not your tourist trap bar. Now, onto price. If you've lived in Montana your whole life then maybe this is expensive? All I know is that I don't know of anywhere in Idaho, California, Oregon, or Utah that is less expensive and in Nevada drinks may not seem expensive but they are very often weak and sad. I am always astounded at how inexpensive it is to have an alcoholic beverage in Montana. So in comparison to other places in Montana, I'd still say these guys hit in the inexpensive category and to sweeten the pot the drinks are tough. In fact I'm not so sure that a sissy la la weak drink exsists in Montana. Remember though, I am tainted by the fact that every other state I've ever visited booze are way more expensive in bars. So there you have it, my rant on the Rhino. Unless you're some stuck up city folk in overpriced shoes I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy your visit to The Rhino.

A little stale and stinky when I walked in, but seeing the framed painting of Colonel Sanders on the ceiling instantly fixed this for me. Nice selection of beer! Glad to see this bar still around and to see the floor covered with peanut shells. Some things never change, and they shouldn't.
(5)Dr. J.
Absolutely the worst service I've ever received at a bar (and I've been to more than I care to admit). The first beer I ordered went well enough, but then the shift changed and a new bartender (short, overweight woman with long brown hair) started. There were three employees behind the bar and five customers in the entire bar. As I was finishing my first beer, a guy came in and sat a couple stools away. He waited ten minutes and the 'bartender' never said anything to him or even looked his way. He left after saying "Worst service ever." I waited five more minutes. The 'bartender' looked at me, looked at my empty glass, and then started reading the paper. I stood up, said, "I guess you have to pour your own f'ing drink in this place!" and left. The 'bartender' glanced up at me, sipped her drink, and went back to her paper. Yeah, they have a great selection of beer, but good luck getting one.

I wrote, "I heart the Rhino" and then looked over at the sidebar-- someone else wrote the exact same thing. So what B.C. said. There is a great list of beers-- they have a "50 beers around the world" thing that I would love to try sometime. And after scanning some of the other reviews, I just want to say that I did go on a date here, and it was kind of awesome. What's a get-to-know-you-better-encounter without a ton of peanut shells under your feet? When it's quiet, the Rhino is a place for good conversation, good beer, and a friendly local vibe. When it's noisy and crowded . . . well, it's just fun!
(5)Dolores G.
Taster Tuesdays! Large beer selection and I am tastin' the night away...mostly. Another place that can fill up quick! I like leaving the the Mo'Club and sneeking over into the Rino. Many a tipsy nights here good thing I'm usually walking.
(4)B C.
I heart the rhino. Came here before I lived in Montana and was thrilled to go back once I moved to town. Everytime I've been in the bar back is great and the drinks - ah, happiness. Get the bloody Mary if your into that sort of thing. And there was mention of homemade huckleberry vodka ( didn't have it but would like to). They let you get food from outside & there are plenty of take out options near by. Thumbs up all the way.
(5)Darin A.
It's real simple. If you like beer, want to hang out in a real bar with friends and may even enjoy a game of pool, you'll be at the Rhino. Who else will let you drink a different beer every round and not run out of different beers for you?! Ok, well, if you do get through all their beers, then there's a t-shirt in it for you.
(5)Dr. E.
There for one reason; the hogs can belly up to the trough and slop till they puke. Nowhere to sit, panhandlers, vagrants and drug dealers. Go somewhere else to spend your four dollars for a beer and you'll get a glass without fecal coliform bacteria. I take that back: there for two reasons; the owners make money with very low overhead.
(1)Steven A.
40+ beers on tap, huge selection of the hard stuff, a must check out if in Missoula
(4)Mitch G.
This is flat out the best bar in Missoula for a great beer selection, period.
(5)rick R.
The best bar in Missoula, no doubt about it. The best variety of beer, the nicest staff besides the one grumpy blonde bar tender and chill atmosphere. Oh and the Bros can sometimes be a little much sometimes but the day time atmosphere makes up for it, oh and Ann.

I love the Rhino and it is one of the few things I miss about living in Missoula. I lived there for six years and got hooked on pint nights, Full moon nights ( I don't know if they still do those- I haven't lived there since September 2001) and just being one of three people there on New years day night. Anyways the staff was always friendly, the beer was on the cheap side (I say cheap because I have lived in MA since 2002 and its not so cheap to go out and throw back a few drinks) and it was just a great place to have drinks and hang out. They had darts and video games and pool and a back deck area............maybe someone who hasn't been there since mid Septemeber 2001 should be posting something about them but if yo uare in Missoula visit this establishment. it is one of the best bars for drinking in Mizzoula
(5)Scott B.
Wow, coming to MT for the first time, I didn't know what to expect in the way of bars. With 50 microbrews on draft and something like 100 in bottle, you'll never get bored. The bartenders were all very friendly and made great suggestions. I was in town for 2 days and got through about 12 beers on my "50 ways to Love your Liver" card. Looking forward to going back and finishing it.
(5)M W.
The kind of bar that anybody could feel at ease in. My favorite par t is that you can get fast, friendly service even if you don't have a set of boobs to prop up on the bar. Try that at Stockman's without cleavage / looking underage. HUGE beer selection, probably the biggest in Missoula and they've got shuffleboard! Easily my favorite bar in Missoula.
(5)Katt A.
my favorite bar in missoula! the rhino is a great place to have friendly afternoon drinks, party the night away for a special event, or stop in while bar hopping. the crowd changes, depending on the day and time you visit, so make it a point to check it out a few times if possible. I recommend the rasberry frambois lambic beer...it's one of the pricey ones, at $6 a pint, but its delishous. some even mix it 1/2 and 1/2 with guinness for a chocolate/rasberry flavor. and they have house made infused vodkas! love this place!
