Billy Sunday, Matthias Merges’s (Yusho) turn-of-the-century-inspired cocktail bar, opened last night in Logan Square.

Its namesake — an evangelical preacher who galvanized Chicago’s Prohibition movement — would not approve. There’s enough on the menu to keep folks tipsy (and full bellied) every day of the week.

Friday
Be among the first to drink in the 50-seat, tavern-style watering hole with vintage chandeliers, sepia-tinted photos, and a wall-mounted hutch packed with spirits and jarred botanicals.

Saturday
Eye Alex Bachman’s (Yusho) menu carefully. Everything is made in house, from tonic to bitters.

Sunday
Magic happens when sipping white whiskey, egg white, quince, vermouth, and finger lime tincture.

Monday
Go ahead. Try a gin and tonic on draft.

Tuesday
Celebrate the revival of Batavia Arrack (old-school Indonesian rum) with a playful pisco punch.

Wednesday
Things in Jars (smoked trout, chicken liver) and shareable snacks (pickled sardine) add to the jovial vibe.

Thursday
A daiquiri with pineapple bitters calls.

Never has a hangover been so worth it.
