Union 42 Bourbon & Brew

Love the place and since I'm new to bourbon, the bartender took the time to help me with how I should go about tasting and selecting a bourbon... can't recommend it enough!

This is the bourbon trail in one place, widest selection of Bourbons outside Bardstown. Larry the proprietor, the most knowledgeable bourbon host, let him know the type of flavor you like, he will help you find a better one. Games to play, jukebox, bring your own food if you like great atmosphere. BTW this is not myself in the photo, but was a guy enjoying Christmas with a bourbon.

This place is amazing top notch owner and fantastic Bourbon selection and the atmosphere is super laid back

Lots of good burbon to choose from and great customer service!

Best bourbon bar in the area. The owner, Larry, is genuine and very knowledgeable. Great selection. Great pricing. Great environment. Definitely worth a trip!

Great selection of bourbon, fair prices and good company! The barber shop next to it is pretty fantastic as well. Lefty’s!

Best people. EXCELLENT selection of Bourbons and Rye over 125! Check this place out on OLD US 42! See u there...

If you are curious about bourbon or a bourbon lover, this is the place for you. Bartenders are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They also have a great selection of scotch and tequila if you're not into bourbon. Perfect place to sit, chat, and have a good time.

I love this place. Off the beat and path, if you don't know you should. Their bourbon selection is great, but don't sleep on their Irish whiskeys. The owner was their and he was super nice and helpful.

Excellent place to sample a huge variety of bourbon. Very friendly staff that is welcoming and great to make suggestions based on your preferences. Will be back often.

The gem of nky bourbon bars. Reviews would come close to the real experience. Don't judge a book by its cover. It's out in union and tucked away a bit but you will never find another spot anywhere close to it. Larry (the owner) is a national treasure and is a must have for the experience.

Quaint little place with a tremendous bourbon selection.

Excellent choices of more bourbons than I could count. Pricing on pours is very reasonable. Spoke with the owner on my first visit and I left feeling like I was a regular. If you have a bourbon you'd like to try before buying or looking to expand your palette, give this honey hole a shot! Pours(which are all 2oz.) Range from a few bucks to $30.

Larry runs an excellent establishment, fair prices, wide selection of bourbons, great neighborhood bar feel. Nobody is a stranger here

If you are looking for a place to find good bourbon at decent prices in Northern KY look no further. The selection is better than most. The owner Larry is a friendly and helpful bartender. Know that it is bring your own food, with only drinks for sale.

Great place for quality bourbon (also scotch and irish whiskey) and there is always good conversation. The owner Larry knows his business and willingly takes time to educate the novice on the finer points of bourbon.

One of the finest bourbon establishments I've been to. Tom is a fantastic bartender and makes every visit pleasant. We'll always be customers

They have a great selection and great prices. Very friendly place and great environment.

This place was very cool and everyone was SO friendly! Really enjoyed it, and Larry has a knack for making you feel right at home immediately. I've never seen such a selection of bourbons!

Am a Union KY visitor about 4 times a year and always make a point of stopping here a number of times while in town.
I am not a bourbon drinker but rather a homebrewer who enjoys sampling a localities available beer and Union 42 has a number of these in the cooler.
Larry the owner has been patient with me in answering my bourbon questions as I have an inquisitive mind and may in time set up a bourbon table at home.
I’ve heard Larry talk bourbon to many of his customers and his willingness to share his knowledge is great for the sport.
The vibe of the place is spot on for me...comfortable and not pretentious. I’ve spent a lot of time in old Chicago neighborhood taverns and this place reminds me of those...if you want gimmicky bells and whistles,
big screened TV’s and servers with fake smiles go elsewhere.If you want honesty with a true neighborhood feel this is a good place to visit.
