When O.S.H.O. Brewing + Distillery took over the former location and brewing operations of Helton Brewing Co., the team opted to reimagine the space and create a neighborhood tavern that specializes in cocktails and globally inspired bites. The bar is vibrant and eclectic, with red lampshades, toile wallpaper, loungey leather couches and classic paintings refreshed with quirky street art style. The menu matches the space’s energy. Among the cocktails, the Hibiscus Spritz is a floral, lightly sweet sipper that uses Lo-Fi Aperitifs’ Gentian Amaro and is topped with bubbles, hibiscus and lemon. For craft beer nerds, there are also plenty of options, including O.H.S.O. standards such as its tropical IPA Boom Dynamite and the brewer’s rendition of Helton’s sweet-tart Boysenberry Sour. The array of small and shareable plates includes a bright honey-whipped ricotta with roasted zucchini as well as New York-style pizza by the slice or pie.
