Happy Hour at the hye West Saloon
Brian Gardner’s Hye West Saloon started as refuge from the pandemic—a place where he and his wife could drink safely without worrying about bringing COVID into the home—but it has quickly turned into a social media sensation. Brian’s infinity barrel videos and live flights have captured the imagination of many home bar romantics, most of whom also caught the Bourbon bug during the lockdown. In this conversation, we discuss how the pandemic shaped the collector mindset and how the booze industry changed while bars and restaurants were closed.
