What are you doing? If you are a serious lifter (i.e have been lifting for years and squat/dl more than 400lbs, compete in power lifting, etc) then this bar will be garbage.
At this price, you can be CERTAIN that knurling will be passive, collars wont spin that well, the bar will bend/break with heavy weight, (Google "bar bends during squat" and watch the youtube videos... ), etc. Again, this is really only a concern if you are a very serious lifter moving heavier weight. If you are more of a casual lifter, just lifting to stay in shape, etc, and not moving crazy weight, this bar will get the job done.
If you are an intermediate lifter, you would probably want to upgrade to something like Caps "The Beast" barbell for ~$100. If you are a very serious/competitive lifter, then you are going to want to step up to Rogue, Kabuki, Texas Power bar, etc type of bars which will be in the $300+ range.
anyone have a review for the bar? Lots of reviews on the site about the weights but can't find any about the bar. Not tryinflg to get stuck with a bad bar.

Is the beast probably the best beginner bar?

Oh please, you have to look at how much you're paying and how much you're lifting, coz if you're a beginner lifting less than 400 lbs, I wouldn't even worry about the bar bending at all.
