Al's Wine & Whiskey Lounge in Syracuse has been named one of the Top 125 whiskey bars in the U.S. by Whisky Advocate magazine. It is one of only two bars in Upstate New York to receive this recognition. The bar features around 2,000 bottles of whiskey, including bourbon, rye, Scotch, and Irish varieties. It has a notable wall of spirits that requires a sliding ladder for access. Lucky Day Whiskey Bar in Buffalo is the other Upstate New York bar on the list. Whisky Advocate's selections highlight a range of unique venues across the country, not just high-end establishments.
