ingapore is no stranger to nightlife trends: from fussy bespoke

cocktails to small-batch spirits to low-slung rooftop bars to the
craftiest of craft beers, weve got all that and more to be proud
of. For example, two cocktail bars from our humble shores have
appeared again on the Worlds 50 Best Bars list (give it up for
Manhattan and 28 Hong Kong Street); Changi Village now has its
very own independent microbrewery (see page 20); and theres
now a bar specializing exclusively in tequila, rum and mezcal (hi,
Vasco!). Pair that with our sky-high clubs and cozy sports bars, and
youve got the whole nightlife spectrum. Singapore may be small,
but it sure is a great place to kick back and party. And here is the
complete guide on how to do it, this year with lots of new venues
and updates on old favorites. Cheers!
