Happy Hour Guide 5

happy

hour GUIDE T

he advent of summer is a time for joy. The sun returns with heat and

calls on everyone to drop everything and run into the great outdoors. But there is the rub. How many of us can heed the sun’s call and unchain ourselves from the work-a-day world that keeps us indoors? When we do finally cut the tether to a world that provides our daily bread we need an infusion of happiness quickly be-

cause it will only be too soon before we have to return.

That is why this happiest of hours means so much to us. Everything slows down and the cold beverage transports us to a place where we can grow close to friends we don’t see as much as we should. A cool elixir reinvigorates our social roots in a way no “social” media can, and we begin to tell tales that inspire us to carry this Happy Hour forward.

To aid in your happiness we have collected the best places to enjoy your hour of joy. Whether you like your whiskey neat or your Cosmo purple, this guide will send you to the right spot for your getaway. We recommend closing your eyes, opening a page at random and finding your happiness with an ax-quick drop of the finger. Get out there, explore a new happy spot and let us be your guide.

BARTENDER PROFILE

Ben Eler CURRENTS AT THE RIVERHOUSE Eler has been bartending for about 15 years. Working as a bartender in college, Eler fell in love with the hospitality industry. “There is an artistic element to bartending,” says Eler.

Favorite drink: “Riverside Margarita. It’s about making everything fresh in the glass. The mixology game came and went. I make drinks that are fresh, simple and balanced in flavor.”

Least favorite drink: “Lemon Drops! They are so passé. Try something else!”

Best kind of guest: “One that is open to trying something new—the adventurous kind that wants to have a good experience. Those people are the best.”

ON THE DESCHUTES

Marcus Egge 900 WALL Egge started at 900 Wall before it was 900 Wall. He got his start at the former Merenda’s in 2003 and just never left.

Least favorite drink: “A Malibu and diet coke.

Why? Because they just aren’t very good.”

Best kind of guest: “One that is trusting, that allows us to give suggestions and trusts we’ll make good ones.”

Worst kind of guest: “People who don’t know how to wait in line, or that don’t understand how hard we are hustling.”

BARTENDER PROFILE

Jarryd Hanson ROCKIN’ DAVE’S BISTRO AND BACKSTAGE LOUNGE Hanson is as giddy as the man is tall, which is very.

Having been a bartender off and on for about eight years, this guy knows his way around a bottle.

Least favorite drink: “Oh God. Any highball drinks.

A shot and a mixer? So boring.”

Favorite kind of guest: “Ones that pay me. Oh, and I guess ones that are vocal about what they want, or at least have some idea.”

Worst kind of guest: “Probably one that just sits there and keeps to themselves. People who don’t want to participate in the experience. Engage me!”

Buck Bales D&D BAR & GRILL

Open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner!

Happy Hour 2:30 - 6:00 every day A Truly Thai Experience is here in Bend.

Catering Available Delivery Available on bendtakeout.com 550 NW Franklin Ave Suite 148 (Entrance on Bond St.) | 541-647-6904

Originally from Central Oregon, Buck Bales moved to Portland after high school, but eventually returned to Bend in late 1990. He has been bartending for 18 years, the last six of them at the D&D. Favorite drink: “Honestly, a shot and a beer, neat or on the rocks, for one simple reason. The person knows what they like and enjoys it the way the distiller intended.”

How you got into bartending: “I kind of started working in bars by accident. I would hang out at a bar down the street from where I lived and help the girls close sometimes and they offered me a job a couple days a week. I was working at a desk job at the time so a couple days a week worked out perfectly. Little did I know the company I worked for was cutting out my department so I started bartending full time.”

BARTENDER PROFILE

Elizabeth Sanders KELLY D’S IRISH SPORTS BAR & GRILL Elizabeth Sanders has been in the restaurant industry since she was 16, eventually moving into bartending.

She has been at Kelly D’s Irish Pub for almost five years.

Least favorite drink: “Anything with maraschino cherries. They are just gross.”

Most underrated drink: “Water. Drink water with your drinks. Your night will last longer and you will feel better in the morning.”

Most overrated drink: “AMF. Really?!? For amateurs only.”

BARTENDER PROFILE

Jason Gartz THE STIHL WHISKEY BAR Jason Gartz has been in the service industry for 20 years, bartending for 15 of those. He has owned The Stihl Whiskey Bar for the last two years.

Favorite drink: “Classic Old Fashioned, because it embodies the original recipe from 1860—a drink that came out of necessity because whiskey tasted not so great back then.”

Least favorite drink: “The Ramos Gin Fizz. It’s an over-complicated cocktail that tastes seriously underwhelming. Six ingredients and the original recipe required you to shake it for 15 minutes. Generally, people that order it are of the older variety. If a younger person ordered it in my bar, I might kick them out.”

How you got into bartending: “I got into the food industry and realized I didn’t like a lot of those jobs, so I started bar backing under a guy named Larry the Jew. Slowest bartender in the world.

When I turned 21 and got my OLCC I started seriously bartending.”
