Defiant expression from boorish lout around bar's entrance (3-3)
I believe the answer is:
yah-boo
'defiant expression' is the definition.
('yah-boo' might be said in defiance or rudeness)
'boorish lout around bar's entrance' is the wordplay.
'boorish lout' becomes 'yahoo' (yahoo can mean a loutish person).
'around' is an insertion indicator.
'entrance' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'bars' is 'b'.
'yahoo' enclosing 'b' is 'YAH-BOO'.
'from' is the link.
(Another definition for yah-boo that I've seen is " Derisive exclamation".)
