Yelp!

I attended the "soft" opening/whiskey & beer back tasting party at Haymarket Whiskey on Market tonight sponsored by my friend Rachel and Yelp of Louisville.  We sampled 3 local whiskey/bourbons (for those who don't know, whiskey/bourbon is like rectangles/squares... all bourbon (squares) is whiskey (rectangles), but not all whiskey is bourbon.) paired with local beers.

As with any grand opening there was tons of swag to give away.  I lucked out with a t-shirt that says "The kind of turkey you want at Thanksgiving: Wild Turkey".

We finished the night with a local's game of name-that-place.  Each with a post-it on our heads of a local destination, we could ask one question and guess the location.  Here's how my questions went:
1. Am I a place you can eat/drink?  Er...yes, no, well kind of, yes.
2. Am I an athletic venue? No.
3. Can you stay with me? Yes!
AM I 21c HOTEL/MUSEUM?!?!  YES!!!
... And then I won $50 to Avalon!  Whoop!

Haymarket Whiskey will be a great place downtown to see small bands and convene in the early evening for a drink and to catch up with friends.  With lots of potential and an owner with big sights for the future, Haymarket needs only to expand its clientele.
