The Naked Lady at Bryant's Cocktail Lounge in Milwaukee

We've heard of two-for-one drafts, but half-priced Old Fashioneds? That's what Bryant's Cocktail Lounge serves during happy hour, and that sounds to me like a very happy hour, indeed. Just south of Milwaukee's Walker's Point neighborhood, the historic lounge looks cool without trying too hard (except when it comes to the bar—okay, and the errant pork pie hat or swipe of red lipstick). Bryant's has been around since 1938, and is still serving Milkwaukee's best: Cutie bartender Chad Doll won the 2009 Drambuie® Den national cocktail competition with a gin-based drink he calls Strange Weather. Imbibe has the recipe. And we have more pictures of Bryant's after the jump.

The Velvet Lounge. It's the same as Bryant's Cocktail Lounge, they just decided to name the second floor. We like that.
