Bar 32’s beverage program leans on a ten-cocktail list that balances familiar and adventurous builds, from the Bourbon Sunset’s ginger beer fizz to the Desert Sunset’s prickly pear and Hellfire Bitters kick. Happy hour discounts cocktails and wine by the glass, and the draft list covers local craft and domestic staples. Zero-proof options are present but not the headline.
