Made famous in Larry McMurtry’s Lonesome Dove, The Dry Bean was a favorite hangout for Gus and the boys of the Hat Creek Cattle Company. Not only for a few beers or whiskeys during those long hot Texas summer days but for a little socializing. “The Bean" had rooms to rent but mostly was used for a house of ill repute. This is where Gus’s (and almost everybody else’s) favorite girl, Lorena  worked.
