Dale Earnhardt Jr named the bar in his basement Whisky River -- Now the real Whisky River is open.

Located in Uptown Charlotte in the EpiCentre complex, Dale Jr's Whisky River is now open.

Dale Jr has partnered with Chris Epstein, a longtime Charlotte bar and nightclub operator, in the business deal.

Earnhardt plans on featuring live music and entertainment, along with plenty of flat-screen TVs, and even a mechanical bull.

It.s a place to go and hang out with your friends, have a beer, and maybe a burger or some hot wings.

Dale Jr and Epstein have landed a great location for the bar. It's right across the street form Charlotte's Bobcat Arena, and just a stone's throw from the site of NASCAR's new Hall of Fame.

The EpiCentre complex is a new development in the heart of Charlotte that stands on the former site of the Charlotte Convention Center.

The $275 million development includes retail and office space, a hotel, a park, and several restaurants ranging from fast food to fine dining. A 53 story condominium project is also in the works.
