Bar Guide 2014: Bazi Bierbrasserie

By Martin Cizmar

1522 SE 32nd Ave., 234-8888, bazipdx.com. 3-11 pm Sunday-Thursday, 3 pm-1 am Friday-Saturday.

Belgophiles know Bazi, though it's slightly hidden off Hawthorne Boulevard, as our foremost bastion of Trappist ales, stoemp and frites. Owner Hilda Stevens opened this nook in 2011 to offer a tightly curated collection of beers, but Bazi isn't priggish, so you'll also find a few Northwest IPAs on tap, not to mention beer cocktails and genever cocktails with "sexy cubes," as well as a very pleasant chutney burger with bacon, peanut butter and onion marmalade. MARTIN CIZMAR.

Happy hour: 3-7 pm and 10-close Monday-Saturday, all day Sunday. Cheap food, $1 off select drinks.
