West Village regulars might have a difficult time adjusting to Union Bear, a bar and restaurant located in the Uptown basement space formerly occupied by the sleek ultra-lounge Nikita. The atmosphere at Union Bear is warm, with candlelight and wire deer head sculptures hanging on raw wooden walls. You can get a good pizza, but a better reason to go to Union Bear is for one of the best beer menus in town – the entirety of which is offered on tap for $5. Among the selection are rotator taps that feature small-batch beers, brewed in-house by local homebrewers.
We love to drink here at the Observer. We take no shame in our excessively inebriated stories, and actually work hard to pack as much beer and liquor into every post possible. But as much as we love b... More »

Some bartenders gripe about customers who aren't sure about their orders. It's hard to blame them when someone comes up to the bar and leans over the beer taps to ask what's on draft. Other bartenders, though, take pride in being beer sherpas. They relish in the opportunity to introduce another newbie to their perfect malted match, in hopes of inducting another hophead. Union Bear's bartenders have this shtick down, pouring shot glass after shot glass of local and national brews when someone... More »
It's not the biggest as far as brewpubs go, or at least doesn't have the brewing capacity of a Humperdink's, Gordon Biersch or BJ's. In fact, it only brews one beer at a time to complement its array of other fine ales and lagers. But brewing a new offering every week, this self-proclaimed "nanobrewery" makes up for its small output with creativity, offering amateur brewers the chance to collaborate on experimental batches.
