Do you have what it takes to be the Bartender of the Year in 2022? Take our first practice quiz to see where your knowledge is at.

It’s good to be back. After a two year hiatus, we can’t wait to crown a new Australian Bartender of the Year in 2022.

Australian Bartender magazine’s Bartender of the Year sponsored by Hendrick’s & Monkey Shoulder is the toughest test of bartending ability going around. The comp is open to all working bartenders, and if you haven’t registered yet, it’s not too late. You can nominate yourself, or your bartender or bar manager. Simply email amy@spantonmedia.com to register your interest and if it’s for someone else, be sure to include their email address and phone number.

Comp is scheduled to happen during Sydney Bar Week 2022 – the first and second rounds (a written exam, followed by a cocktailing challenge and a blind tasting) will be held on Monday, 5th September and the Finals will be held on stage at the 21st Annual Bartender magazine Bar Awards on Wednesday, 7th September.
