This is microbrewery with good beer and even better food. They also have the Enchanted Forest and Grain Haus just behind it where they have a huge number of beer taps and an outdoor event space where they often host mini-festivals. Very worth a visit.

Neighborhoods

This is the coolest neighborhood in Louisville. (NULU is a close second.) There are great restaurants, bars, coffee shops, parks, boutiques, murals, etc. You can spend a few hours walking up and down the streets eating, drinking, and taking it all in. I've been here nearly a decade and I still love doing just that.

Bourbon Trail

If you are planning to do ANY Bourbon Trail visits, book at least THREE MONTHS in advance, otherwise, you may not be doing any tours. It's not as cool to tour the distilleries from the outside. :/
