Crescent Hill Craft House opens on Monday, August 25.
Looking for a wonderful draft beer list that refutes the oft-heard lament that one must drink beer from elsewhere, not from around Louisville, because our local beer isn't as interesting?
Pfui. Meet the Crescent Hill Craft House, opening Monday, August 25. It is located at 2636 Frankfort Avenue in Louisville.
