James Downs: Bartender Supereoso





My brother just texted me a link to an article about him on drinkcode.wordpress.com. It is nice that he is getting some SF recognition. The man is a genius with alcohol (and arguably always has been) and invented an official unofficial drink for Anchorman 2 "my best friend baxter"

Though he’s been here for just four months, James already talks like an old soul San Francisco drinks maven, which we’re convinced means either:1) he was destined to find his way to our drinks-splashed city, or2) he’s a really quick study of everything we want in a bartender.Given that the guy fairly oozes authenticity, it’s unlikely he’s just a quick study in the right clothes (which, we have to say, are snappy).  We spent some time with James to get to the bottom of his cocktail savvy, discovering along the way that he’s got some mighty cool creds.

Here's a link to the article.

“I love Anchorman, so this was a dream assignment.  It’s like the Airplane of our generation.” – James Downs, on creating our official Unofficial Anchorman 2 drink, My Best Friend Baxter, at CHAMBERS

I remember him hosting and staffing most of my 21st birthday party at his legendary Whiskey Loft in Ohio. Which was basically a 3 story industrial building with only 1 finished apartment in it. This apartment was something out of the REAL WORLD also, it was mega fancy and had marble table sand the greatest decor. Also $200 of beer and liquor woot woot.

James has always yearned to go that much further west. I'm glad he fits in there, I do miss the guy but he's happy and at home!

Way to go bro!  Im very proud of you
