All the winners from Tales of the Cocktail’s Spirited Awards 2013

tales-of-the-cocktail-logo1

So we may be nursing sore heads from a great awards dinner — and a very large Juniperlooza party afterwards — but here is a full list of the winners from last night. Both the excellent Brooklyn cocktail bar, Clover Club and New York’s the Dead Rabbit featured prominently among the winners, which were drawn more heavily from the US this year (as opposed to last year’s English invasion).

But Kiwi-born Jacob Briars took out the award for best international brand ambassador, and ex-pat Aussie Naren Young’s work on the bar program for Saxon + Parole got a nod with a win for Best Restaurant Bar.

The full winners below — congratulations to all the winners on the night and to Tales for putting on a spectacular evening.
