The ‘90s Comes to Miami This Week

Happy Humpday! What are your plans for this week? As always, we’re spotlighting some of the best places to get away and do something or participate in an event this week, beginning with a throwback to the ‘90s.

Nirvana was one of the most popular and influential bands to emerge in the 90s and its frontman Kurt Cobain continues to be a fascinatingly tragic figure more than two decades after he took his own life. You’ll be able to learn a little more about the enigmatic musician by watching the film Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck tomorrow, August 11 at Canvas in Miami. The film provides insight into Cobain’s life through accounts told by the people closest to him. Admission is free and the film begins at 7 pm.

In keeping with the ‘90s theme, Churchill’s Pub is hosting its '90s Flashback Fest and '90s Costume Contest where patrons are encouraged to don their best 90s-inspired outfit in a competition to win $100. The competition is open to anyone eighteen or over and it’s all going down this Friday from 8 pm to 3 am. There is a cover charge of $10.

The Best Cocktail Bar Is in Miami Beach

At 710 Liquors, we’ve got a great collection of drinks to choose from including wine, beer, and more. Of course we also know that sometimes you’d rather enjoy a drink out on the town instead of spending it at home. After all, a great night out with friends and cocktails makes for a memorable experience. Thankfully, Miami Beach has got one of the best bars in the country according to the Spirited Awards.

Sweet Liberty found on 20th Street received the Best New American Cocktail Bar award from the Spirited Awards. These awards have been running for ten years and are awarded by Taste of the Cocktail which has assembled a team of more than 100 judges to determine the best bars and bartenders around the country.

John Lermayer is the man behind Sweet Liberty and coincidentally he was also named among the American Bartender of the Year group of finalists. Lermayer has stated that he wants his customers to feel at home in the bar.

Sweet Liberty features a number of curiously named cocktails like the She Said Yes, the Velvet Sideswipe, and The Beast of Bourbon among many others. The bar also sells food.
