Honey Barrel - Old Fashioneds and Bourbon Lounge — Restaurant in Verona

This place slaps. Newer joint that I have been hearing whispers about. I am not a whiskey bro so I was a little apprehensive, but I got the basic sweet brandy old fashioned and it blew my mind. Most old fashioned taste like a tire, this one was something I actually wanted to order another of… a little more complex and was trying to be good instead of just trying to get u a buzz. Chill vibe, some upscale touches but approachable. It was raining but the little outdoor area will be worth a second visit. The owner was working, a little bit chatty but not in a bad way… u can tell the staff cares. The Verona hood is a cocktail desert, they needed this place.

I only ranked it 4 stars because I thought $13 for a big ice cube drink and $25 for four mini cups...

Even though I didn’t enjoy their full flight, because it was pre-batched I decided against it, I had a little taste of their mezcal pre batch and it packed a punch, really good. Sometimes the pre-batched drinks are watered down, but not here. Met some fun folks. Thank you both for...
