BiXi Beer

Super GemLogan Square · Korean/Chinese/Vietnamese-inspired Brewpub Community-sourced, unverified
📍 2515 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60647

BiXi Beer is what happens when a well-regarded kitchen team decides to build a brewery around its own food instead of the other way around: it's from the people behind the now-closed Owen & Engine, led by chef Bo Fowler (a January 2025 James Beard Foundation semifinalist), and it pairs Korean-, Chinese-, and Vietnamese-inspired cooking with house-brewed beers infused with Asian flavors.

$$
Weekend dim sum brunch + Asian-flavor-infused house beers from James Beard semifinalist chef Bo Fowler; occasional Owen & Engine pop-ups (Sun-Times' all-time-favorite burger) when scheduled

The weekend dim sum brunch is the standout move, and there's also a sushi menu and a dedicated happy hour on the books. Every so often, Fowler brings back Owen & Engine dishes for limited pop-ups — including a Slagel Farms burger the Chicago Sun-Times called its writer's all-time favorite burger in the city — so it's worth watching BiXi's calendar even if that particular burger isn't a standing menu item.

It's a rare brewpub that treats its food program as seriously as its beer list, with a James Beard semifinalist to prove it.
