Editorial Review for Whiskey Ward – by Kevin R. Kosar
The Scene
With this wide open room, 12-foot-high tin ceilings, exposed-brick walls and handmade furnishings, it's hard to believe this place used to be a hardware store. Set in the decreasingly rough-and-tumble Sixth Ward (known a century ago as the Whiskey Ward), this bar attracts a crowd ranging from edgier sorts to cell phone-toting NYU students.
The Draw
The bar stocks eight single malts, 11 fine bourbons, 20 bottled beers and six taps. Pair a shot of Woodford Reserve with a Guinness, or treat your palate with a slightly sweet Pappy Van Winkle 12-year-old bourbon and a chaser of Young's Ram Rod bitter beer.

Insider Tips
When to GoHappy hour, daily 5pm-8pm, means $2.50 well drinks and tap beers, and anyone buying a $5 call shot can get an 8-ounce glass of tap beer for $1.
The ExtrasA pool table in back attracts more drunk hipsters than pool sharks, so don't be intimidated if you want to get in on a game.

After bumming around the City looking for a good place to throw back a few, I remebered this place. Glad I did. Relaxed, friendly, good beer/whiskey and cool crowd. Definitely one of the good ones.

The bar is classic "neighborhood". Pool tables, stained wooden floors, everyone drinks beer with no fancy cocktails, the jukebox plays the same 6 songs over and over. Not my scene, but if you like that sort of place, then you'll probably love this one.
