Bourbon in hand, a pool cue or chessboard nearby, and plenty of good conversation. Just show up and hang out.

Join us the first Friday of every month, 6pm to 9pm, for a night built around real conversation instead of screens and noise. You won't find TVs in our shop, and that's on purpose. We wanted a place where guys could slow down, talk, and actually connect with the people around them.

At the center of the night is a bottle share. Bring a bottle of bourbon to share, and sample what everyone else brings. It's a low-cost way to try new pours and figure out what you like, whether you're just getting started or you've been collecting for years. Neat, on the rocks, mixed, or not drinking at all, however you like it works here.

Don't worry if you're new to bourbon or new to the group. The guys who show up aren't snobs. If you don't know where to start, someone will pour you something, answer your questions, and walk you through it. No pressure, no attitude, just good company.

We get guys from their early 20s into their 60s: church friends, shop regulars, and new faces who found us online. No cover charge, no membership. If you've got a bottle, bring it. If you don't, come anyway.

Come slow down with us in the MMGS lounge. You might end up looking forward to it every month.
