Haymarket Whiskey Bar is my kind of bar. It’s the kind of dive bar that’s got character in spades — witness pinball and skeeball machines, a giant moose head, and a neon blue bar — but it’s not so grungey that you feel like you don’t want to put your hands on the fluorescent-lit bar (or if you do, you’d have to whip out your bottle of Purell). It also has the best collections of bourbon in Louisville.

Now, “best” is a word that’s thrown around quite a lot, and there are, unquestionably, a lot of great bourbon bars in Louisville. But we stand by it when it comes to Haymarket. With nearly 400 whiskies, roughly 300 of which are bourbon, you can find basically anything you’re looking for and some bottles you never even thought to look for. What’s more, there’s zero pretense here. Bartenders are just as happy to serve you a beer and a shot — or a $200 1 1/2-ounce pour of Pappy (although they may serve you nicer ice for the latter).
