Evan Williams and Lunch at Mellow Mushroom

To end the bourbon tour, we decided to walk over to the Evan Williams Experience, which was a couple blocks from our lodging in downtown Louisville.  Frankly, it was disappointing. Probably because we had been to multiple distilleries on consecutive days, but ultimately having a place like this in a downtown area just simply doesn't feel as authentic as out in the Kentucky boonies.  They did have a really cool display in the lobby of the place:


We skipped the tour after others tours on back to back days and they didn't offer tastings otherwise.  Boo hoo.  I was also dismayed that their prices were higher than normal retail, which is opposite the other places we went.

Wanted some pizza and decided to check out the Mellow Mushroom. Interestingly, one of these is being built currently in Blacksburg on the site of the old and famous Backstreets.  A very tasty meal.  Got a pizza with meatballs, fresh mozarella, and basil.  Great beer selection too.  Should be a hit in Blackburg.  If you check the picture roll from Loiusville you can see a nice shot of the pie.
