Step inside one of Louisville's most iconic bourbon bars. In this episode of the Mash Bill Podcast, I sit down with Brian Downing, owner and general manager of The Silver Dollar in Louisville, Kentucky. From its beginning as a historic firehouse to its place today as a cornerstone of the city's bourbon scene, Brian shares the story of how this Clifton neighborhood favorite has evolved while holding on to its honky-tonk charm.
We explore The Silver Dollar's impressive whiskey list of over 500 selections, their curated barrel selection program, and how they're expanding into tequila and mezcal offerings for adventurous palates. Brian walks us through the cocktail menu, from tried and true classics to inventive new creations, and highlights the food that keeps guest coming back, like chicken and waffles and barrio tacos.
If you love bourbon history, Louisville nightlife, and the stories behind the bars that shape Kentucky's whiskey culture, this conversation will make you want to pull up a reclaimed wood booth, sip something neat, and stay awhile.
