I give the Beer Bistro a big zero. My adult daughters own a condo around the corner from the place. We used to frequent it all of the time. But the way that the owner and his employees treated my daughter and her friends on New Year's Eve, guarantees that they will never see a dime of my money again. There are many other good bars in the West Loop that offer better food, better prices, better service and a much friendlier atmosphere.

For a city of its size, Chicago is surprisingly lacking in truly great beer destinations. Unfortunately the addition of Beer Bistro doesn't change that situation tto much. It's a far cry from the two essential beer bars in town, Map Room and Hop Leaf. And to be fair, it serves a slightly different clientele than those places. Situated in the super-urban-chic "Lofts 'R' Us" West Loop area, the Beer Bistro's primary constituency seems to be the primped & stylish martini-bar crowd. Cast in that light, The Beer Bistro probably has the best tap selection anywhere in the West Loop area, with some 15 taps and 80 bottles including regional micros (Bell's, Great Lakes, and of course the Goose), standard Europeans (Guinness, Newcastle, Stella Artois), and a handful of Belgian ales (Trappistes Rochefort 10, Piraat, Delirium, Duvel, etc.) My main hangup is that the place isn't as much about the beer as it is about being a "see and be seen" kind of place. I can't exactly fault them for it since their location verily demands this sort of atmosphere, and I suppose thumbs-up is in order for trying to expand the beer horizons of their constituency beyond Amstel Light and Stella. Nonetheless, the loafers-and-oxford-shirt crowd isn't my thing and the beer selection isn't nearly enough to draw me away from the other beer meccas in the city.

This place has a great selection of imports and micros, with an excellent selection of Belgians. They have probably 15 on tap, and another 80 or so in bottles. Well worth the trip.
