Think of the Hawk's Troy Berry as the Tom Cruise of Cleveland's gay bartenders. Chiseled face? Check. Buff biceps? Got 'em. Bedroom eyes? Natch. Besides Berry's classic movie-star looks, the reason this Strongsville native manages to attract a throng of drooling late-night fans is clear as a freshly washed martini glass: The 40-year-old Berry is a master mixologist with a gift for specialty drinks. Take his "Gingerbread Man," a $3 shot of Irish cream, cinnamon, and butterscotch schnapps that tastes like a liquefied gingersnap cookie. Created for the holidays last year, it helped celebrate Berry's 2006 career switch from legal assistant to full-time bartender. "I took a huge pay cut, but money means nothing to me," says Berry. "Life is short. Learn to love it."
