"Nashville’s most under-the-radar outdoor spot is Corsair Distillery & Taproom’s secluded courtyard in Marathon Village. The former factory’s brick walls enclose the space, keeping it quiet even when the taproom is overloaded with out-of-towners. They stock 16 local beers on draft, and their cocktail menu is impressive even for a distillery, featuring crushable, patio-friendly pineapple daiquiris and their Pink Drink, both of which showcase the many spirits they distill off-site. Not only is this a good retreat for a Saturday afternoon, it’s also our favorite spot to pregame a concert at Marathon Music Works." - adam sloan
