Lay your bets – one of the four bars and bartenders in these categories will be walking away with a prize on Sunday.

In the run up to the end of this week’s industry events and Sunday’s industry awards party, The Bar Awards Singapore has released a list of the Top 4 nominees that might receive a plaque and barrel.

“This time around, we’ve decided to release the Top 4 nominees ahead of the awards announcement,” says The Bar Awards editor Tron Young. “We hope this will build anticipation for the industry party, as well as honour the establishments and people who’ve emerged at the top of their categories.”

The Top 4 nominees are part of the results from a second round of voting by the city’s group of 55 panellists. They were each asked to rank their picks from this year’s Top 10 list, and their weighted responses were compiled to derive this year’s winners.

With that, here are this year’s Top 4s for The Bar Awards Singapore:
