Sip & Guzzle is hosting six of the best bars in America for a one-night-only "US Bar Tour"
It should be no surprise, when it comes to the best bars in the world, New York City is the one to beat. And this isn't just us blowing smoke. According to The World's Best list, 50 Best Bars in North America, out of the 26 U.S. bars to make the ranking, 11 of them can be found right here in New York. Making quite the debut, Sip & Guzzle nabbed a number five spot on the list. With just over a year under its belt, Shingo Gokan and Steve Schneider's bi-level bar broke the top five for its 'Japanese beers, perfect highballs, and 'crushable' cocktails' found at Guzzle. Meanwhile, the Japanese drinking room down below, Sip, was recognized for its 'sophisticated vibe' and luxurious snacks, namely the Royale with Cheese Meal made with Wagyu. And while competition is part of the game, the West Village bar is showing us there is nothing but love between its fellow bartenders, so much so, thatthey are inviting some of the country's best bars to NYC for one night only. On June 9, Sip & Guzzle is inviting six of the most acclaimed cocktail bars in the country for a one-night only bar experience. A bit of a pre-party in preparation for the industry trade event, Bar Convent Brooklyn, the bar is hosting high level talent across both of their bars for a mixology event that can't be missed. The first hour of the evening is dedicated to the nation's capital as Washington D.C's Service Bar (number 33) will take over the top floor, while the speakeasy concept, Allegory (number 45), will feel right at home by taking over the basement of Sip. Later in the evening, Chicago's best will take to tending bar, including Logan Square's neo-dive bar, Best Intentions (number 25) and Julia Momosé's omakase cocktail counter, Kumiko (number 10). Two stalwarts of the San Francisco scene will close out the evening: Trick Dog (number 71) and True Laurel (number 17), who received the Ketel One Sustainable Bar Award from The 50 Best brand last year for its local sourcing and waste-free cocktails. Of course, this isn't the first time Sip & Guzzle has hosted some of the best bars of the scene, international talent included. In February, two bars from across the pond, The Connaught Bar and Satan's Whiskers, popped up for an all-out London takeover. And for their one anniversary, Ryohei Yamagishi of Shanghai's retro 80s cocktail bar, The Odd Couple, was featured behind the bar.
