The editorial take
The Whiskey pours a serious whiskey-centric program in with barrel-selected old fashioneds, a deep spirits list, and quarterly flights. Cocktail prices stay reasonable, and the daily Jack Daniel's happy hour adds value. Wine and beer are functional but secondary. A Whiskey Library with exclusive barrels makes it a destination for bourbon and rye enthusiasts.

- Who will enjoy this place?
- Whiskey enthusiasts will appreciate the extensive library and barrel selections. Cocktail drinkers will find a broad menu of classics and staff creations. Value seekers can lean on the daily Jack Daniel's happy hour special.
- When should I go?
- Quarterly flight releases and events like the Bulleit Bourbon & Rye Tasting provide reasons to return.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails range from $9.50 to $20.00, with barrel selections priced higher. Spirits by the pour run $7.00 to $14.00. Happy hour offers $6.50 Jack Daniel's and $5.50 Bud Light bottles.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The Whiskey Library is the centerpiece, featuring bourbon, rye, Irish, Scotch, and Japanese whiskies, plus exclusive hand-selected barrels. The barrel-selected cocktail list, like the Black Walnut Boulavardier, shows a commitment to whiskey-centric mixology. Guests can even take bottles home from the exclusive collection.
