Calling all beer lovers! A new Germantown brewery opened in the old Neuhoff meat packing factory and y’all this is SO COOL. They have 24 beers on tap and offer wine, cocktails and other snacks but no food. You can UBEReats food to the space or bring your own though! There are yard games, TV’s for game day, and the coolest vibes for an indoor/outdoor patio drinking day. Check em out here.
The Twelve Thirty Club
At the new 5th and Broadway development in downtown Nashville, this two story honky tonk meets rooftop bar & “supper club”. Twelve Thirty Club is actually partially owned by Justin Timberlake which is just a hint at the upgrades they’ve added to this space. The architecture and design is inspired by the prohibition era times when normal clubs would close at 12:30. But the “supper clubs” were allowed to stay open later in the evening because they were deemed private which made them the place to be mischievous. The bohemian avant-guard vibe is definitely worth a stop. Oh and the food and music is fab. Click here to see more!
