Probably meant a dive bar, or generally just a spot where most people are drinking beer, as opposed to a liquor bar where most people are drinking mixed drinks. They have distinct atmospheres.
Or you’re just inferring a lot from what is clearly not very much. And for real, are you trying to educate people on what a dive bar is? You do know that dive bars serve liquor too, right?
You asked, why are you getting aggressive? You're the one who's never heard someone say "beer bar".
Nobody says beer bar. I’m not aggressive, I’m just amazed that someone thinks a. A dive bar is something that isn’t common and b. Doesn’t serve liquor.
Maybe they assummed you are not native, and thus the question. I for one have no fucking idea qhat a dive bar or a beer bar are.

The Wikipedia article for "Bar" says: "A beer bar focuses on beer, particularly craft beer, rather than on wine or liquor. A brew pub has an on-site brewery and serves craft beers."
A dive bar is an American thing. Over here we have pubs and wine bars. Beer bar is actually quite a reasonable name for the middle ground things that now exist in office based towns and cities.
We have dive bars in Australia. Beer bar is not a thing.
