Meet our Best Bartenders 2008

Jim Gaut

Jim Gaut, 28
Reagle Beagle
If Gaut wants something, he’ll make it happen, whether it's moving to San Diego to learn how to surf, or taking a job as a stocking beer at Reagle Beagle to work his way up to bartender. When he's not mixing Brady Punch Punches for the after-work crowd, you might find him at home, hosting a barbecue and playing grill master.
Signature drink: The Chi-pirinha, $9 (Rio cachaca, simple syrup and muddled blueberries and raspberries to match the Chicago flag)
Catch him: Thursday through Saturday
