Two days ago, Stephan Berg of the Bitter Truth hat a picture on facebook with the title "Mr. Meyer take this!" Designed by Alexander Hauck, these two gentleman are entering our Bar Shirt awards and very cool. I liked the shirts and it was 110% Bitter Truth Style: Quick, clever, creative, good design .. Thats what small brands normally do. They do the brainwork, the "BIG PLAYERS" are seen as slow and old skool, and potentially just suck the creativity of the small barnds (mostly only after two years...) I was wondering if in our bar industry, the "big ones", are a little bit more creative then I gave them credit for. So yesterday I decided to set up the below (I promise, it is the final shirt category) Ladies and Gentleman: BEST COPORATE BAR SHIRT 2009 Here are the Rules: • Every "Liquid" Brand can enter this competition, except anything Energy Drink Related and anything beer related, because both should not be promoted by bartenders (me thinks) ...

Angus Winchester, the most traveled bar experienced person on this planet and proud member of the BSA Jury, came up with a great idea.  Ladies and Gentleman, we proud to present: BEST OVERSEAS BAR SHIRT . If you can't make it to Berlin, you still can make it in the BAR SHIRT AWARDS! Due to overwhelming international demand a new category has been announced... Best Overseas Bar Shirt... open to all those who wear their bar on their back or their wit on their sleeves but can't make it to Berlin this year... send  picture(s) of you wearing your shirt to bsa (at) jrgmyr.net by 6am (central european time) on 7th Oct and stand to win 20 Gin Basil Smashes, you can drink all arroung the world*" So, where ever you are, send us your Bar Shirts   Some Rules: • Shirts must be worn on the picture by YOU! • You must also be visual on the picture. Please do not send pictures from other people.  • The person on the photo wins the prize, not the Person who send it to BSA * 20 G...

Hier gehts zu den BAR SHIRT AWARDS ...

Seit gestern ist mein Besuch bei Hendrik Thomas TVino Online. Leider läßt sich das ganze, recht WEB 2.0 untypisch, nicht einbetten und daher ein Link zur Folge: Shake it Baby! Sommelier meets Bartender @ TVINO Eines vorweg: es hat großen Spaß gemacht, Ich komme gerne wieder! (Wie wärs mit der großen Jahrgangschampagner sabrier Folge inkl. Verkostung, Herr Bornhöft würde uns sicherlich gerne assistieren...) Ich kenne Hendrik schon seit vielen Jahren. Vor Ewigkeiten habe ich, nach meiner Ausbildung, mit seiner Frau zusammen gearbeitet. So habe ich Ihn kennen gelernt. Und da wir Beide Hamburg im Grunde genommen immer treu geblieben sind, und die Gastro, Wein und Bartender Szene ein herlich kleiner Microcosmos ist, sind wir uns immer wieder über den Weg gelaufen. Kurz nach der Eröffnung von Le Lion kam Hendrik spät Nachts eher zufällig in die Bar, und seit dem kann ich Ihn, jenseits von Monitären Interessen sondern vielmehr auf Grund großer Sympathie, glücklicher Weise zu den Stammgästen ...

Traveling Mixologists and Great Bartenders from Germany Unofficial Opening of BCB Sunday, 4th of October, 2009 from 22.00 o‘clock ADMIRALSBAR at ADMIRALSPALAST - Friedrichsstrasse 101 Berlin Ladies and Gentleman, it is a great honor for me to tell you that the Traveling Mixologists will celebrate this year in a location, which will soon open as TM 002 Gincalos Bar: The Admirals Bar. The Admirals Bar is located under the Great Admirals Palast. Gincalos Admirals Bar is a really nice spot, with lets say capacity for 50 Guests. If you attend the last Traveling Mixologists Events you maybe think: 50 Guests? Come on! Good News .. we know that there will be more Bartender, Cocktail Enthusiasts and Connoisseurs from all over the World attend our celebration this year in Berlin (and BCB as well!) Gincalos Admirals Bar can be „opened“ towards the up coming Admirals Club with will be one of the coolest live Jazz Clubs of Berlin soon. So with this Club together we easily can fit 400 and more Peop...

Mr. Eikerling from Spirits Worldwide in Germany got Georgios Patsias from Cartavio Peru to bring the first bottles of Catarvio XO Rum to Hamburg. First bottles ever opend outside peru... Great Tasting, hope the Bartenders in Berlin will enjoy it tomorrow as well. The Pisco Mr Patsias brought are also one of the best I have ever tried. Seems like there will be a big Pisco Tasting at LE LION very soon ... more details will follow.
