Boise

Boise has built a real reputation as a craft beer town, and BarFinder's 189 listed venues back that up - bars and breweries lead the mix, with a deep bench of sports bars, pubs, and cocktail bars behind them. Downtown Boise blends genuinely historic bars - the Cactus Bar has poured drinks since 1936, and Pengilly's Saloon still has its 115-year-old Brunswick bar - with a modern brewery scene at spots like Lost Grove Brewing and Bittercreek Alehouse. From old-school dives to craft cocktail lounges like The Torch Lounge, Boise's downtown core is walkable enough to hit several of these in one night out.
