Bluegrass Brewing Company East

Detail: The original Bluegrass Brewing Company opened in 1993 at this location, 3929 Shelbyville Road, near Westport Rd., & Chenoweth, & Breckinridge Lanes. It is the city's oldest remaining brewpub and was "the first to make a significant mark on the national brewpub and microbrewery scene". Louisville's best beer is made at this location, and large glass windows in the back dining room allow you to witness the brewing operation. The headbrewer is Jerry Gnagy, assisted by Cameron Finnis. BBC's food has been described as "some of the tastiest bar grub around" by the Courier-Journal. Perennial restaurant reviewer Robin Garr only has good things to say about both the beer and the food. Join us for Happy Hour from 3-7, Monday-Friday. The big yellow building incorporates two large rooms, plus a beer garden. Children are always very welcome, there's even a area just for them!
