Arielle Hafen

Brick Fire Tavern Kaimuki - Honolulu, HI

From Orange County sunshine to Hawaiian paradise, Arielle Hafen has been shaking up the drinking scene since arriving in 2013. After honing her craft at the legendary Pint and Jigger, she took her talents international to Australia at the Sunshine Coast’s Sum Yung Guys, and now elevating the drinking scene at Kaimuki’s premier amaro bar as Bar Manager at Brick Fire Tavern. Her unique blend of world traveler energy sprinkled with aloha shines through, both in her personality and her libation creations – making her a standout figure in Honolulu’s vibrant cocktail culture. Her use of herbaceous and amer ingredients has created an inviting approach to the complex world of bitter and balanced. So next time you’re perched at her bar, keep your eye out for her mean shake, infectious laugh, and drinks that pack a punch. Don’t just ask for a basic drink – this mixologist might tempt you with something far more adventurous instead.
