Free would be mixed nuts. I hate those mixed things like chex mix with all different things going on in it.
For bar appies, a plate of nachos is always good. Though a great cheese platter is the best!

I like to sit at the bar. I like to drink beer. I'm especially pleased when the bartender puts a bowl of something in front of me to nibble on. Of course if he doesn't, I'm inclined to look at the appetizer menu.
my favorite freebie: beer nuts
my favorite appetizer: wings, I guess, but if there's an asian nibble like potstickers or eggrolls, I'll go that way.
you?

Just about any greasy, fatty food is good when you are enjoying good beer. Among my favorites are peanuts, pretzels and fries. My all time favorite would have to be the Blooming Onion at Outback. You might regret it later but it goes great with beer. I also like to hit the Hard Rock and order the Fajitas. Sushi is good, too.

Thank you UNITED959, I have learned something today. I had no idea where tapa originated. ^
The taste of tapa can vary greatly depending on how it is seasoned. I've had some that was excellent and some that made me want to gag. Tapa is also popular in the Philippines due to the Spanish influence in their culture. Filipino tapa is equally good, though some ruin it by adding their own unique flavor. Personally, I hate the taste of excess ginger, which is a fairly popular seasoning in Phils. I find tapa best with light soy or teriyaki seasoning. That's just me....
