Kentucky might be world-famous for bourbon, but that’s not the only spirited trick up our state’s sleeve. In addition to several top-notch wineries, Kentucky is home to many amazing breweries and biergardens, like today’s feature destination. Nestled in a historic and charming neighborhood in Northern Kentucky, Covington Yard is a delightful outdoor biergarden that’s sure to take your summer happy hour to the next level.
At its best, a bar is a gathering place for community and celebration. It’s the kind of place where “everybody knows your name” and even a Tuesday happy hour feels special and fun.
