Thanks to Imbibe for including Proof On Main in their Imbiber’s Guide to Louisville, Kentucky! 🎉

“Louisville is a must-visit destination for bourbon lovers, but even the most diehard wh***ey enthusiast sometimes appreciates a palate cleanser between the wh***ey tastings and tours on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Here, a few local bartenders as well as Paul Clarke, Imbibe editor in chief and frequent flyer to Louisville, share their recommendations for where to drink.”

Cheers to that! 🥃✨🥃
