Singapore is no stranger to nightlife trends: from fussy bespokecocktails to small-batch spirits to low-slung rooftop bars to thecraftiest of craft beers, weve got all that and more to be proudof. For example, two cocktail bars from our humble shores haveappeared again on the Worlds 50 Best Bars list (give it up for
Manhattan and 28 Hong Kong Street); Changi Village now has itsvery own independent microbrewery (see page 20); and theresnow a bar specializing exclusively in tequila, rum and mezcal (hi,Vasco!). Pair that with our sky-high clubs and cozy sports bars, andyouve got the whole nightlife spectrum. Singapore may be small,but it sure is a great place to kick back and party. And here is thecomplete guide on how to do it, this year with lots of new venuesand updates on old favorites. Cheers!
