What happened after Bar Rescue?

The Fifth was a Bountiful, Utah bar bought by Jex Hepworth in the 1950s, in a building that had previously been a pizza shop. Hepworth retired in 1999 and passed the business to his son, Brad, whose daughters Kourtney and Paige also worked there. By the time Bar Rescue's Jon Taffer arrived for the episode "Get Off Your Ass!" (aired 2019-09-29), according to a recap by RealityTVUpdates, Brad had owned the bar for 20 years without learning how to make drinks or run the register, and during Taffer's recon the owner sat drinking at his own bar without noticing that staff had been pulled off the floor. Mixologist Tommy Palmer and chef Anthony Lamas worked the rescue alongside Taffer. According to Bar Rescue Updates, Taffer kept the bar's name as The Fifth Amendment and added a trolley-car fixture inside labeled "The Fifth Line." A Google Places search tied to this record's original address returned an unrelated business, Down Under Pub & Grub at 544 W 400 N in Bountiful; that match does not correspond to The Fifth. Listings on Foursquare and Instagram place The Fifth Amendment at 980 N 500 W, Bountiful, UT 84010. According to Yelp, whose listing for the bar was updated 2026-09, the business is marked permanently closed; RealityTVUpdates' tracker separately dates the closure to 2021. The bar's Instagram account, @the_5th_bountiful, and its ReverbNation venue page remain online but show no recent activity confirming operation. No current website or other 2026-dated coverage of the bar beyond the closed Yelp listing was found in this search. Bountiful sits just north of Salt Lake City, and the bar's Foursquare and Instagram listings both cite the 980 N 500 W address used in this record. The "Fifth Line" trolley-car fixture Taffer's crew installed was intended to give the renovated bar a distinct visual identity, according to Bar Rescue Updates' original coverage of the makeover.
