Spirited Awards lists 2 Minneapolis bars among the best in the country
The Tales of the Cocktail Foundation, the hospitality nonprofit that hosts the annual spirits conference of the same name, has announced the Regional Top 10 Honorees for its Spirited Awards.
The awards have honored outstanding work in cocktails since 2007, and this year, a couple of Twin Cities bars are getting some well-deserved recognition.
The foundation's list of Regional Top 10 Honorees recognizes the work of individuals and bars/restaurants from around the world, including three regions in the U.S.
Among them is Meteor in Minneapolis, which has been listed in two categories: Best U.S. Bar Team - U.S. Central and Best U.S. Cocktail Bar - U.S. Central.
The bar was listed for Best U.S. Bar Team in 2024 as well.
Meanwhile, the Gavin Kaysen-led Spoon and Stable has been listed in Best U.S. Restaurant Bar - U.S. Central, a category where it was listed in 2024, 2023, and 2022, among other honors it has received from the foundation.
That's not the only recognition that Spoon and Stable has received recently. Earlier this year, it was announced that Spoon and Stable bartender Jarod Schiebout is a finalist to compete in the U.S. Bartenders Guild's national competition.
The pair of Minneapolis drink hubs, as well as Public Parking in Madison, Wis. (Best New U.S. Cocktail Bar - U.S. Central), are the only watering holes to make the cut from Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, or Wisconsin.
Though, the central region is represented by a broad swath of the country, with finalists in states that include Ohio, Michigan, Missouri, Louisiana, and Texas.
The 2025 Spirited Awards will be celebrated in a ceremony at the Tales of the Cocktail conference in New Orleans on July 24.

The fourth season of Power Book III: Raising Kanan is in our rearview — the series will eventually return for a fifth and final season — which means Power fans are now focusing on the next installment of the franchise: Power Book IV: Force. The beloved Joseph Sikora-led spinoff was renewed for a third season all the way back in December 2023, but it was announced in June 2024 that Season 3 would be the final installment.

Here's everything you need to know. Nope. The series isn't airing any new episodes this month. Yes!

Acne Studios Launches Its First Permanent Gallery in Paris
Summary In the lead-up to Paris Fashion Week,Acne Studioshas announced the opening of Acne Paper Palais Royal, its first permanent gallery space. Nestled between the storied arcades of Palais Royal in Paris, the new venue ushers in a new era for the Swedish house, deepening its presence in art, design and publishing. Following the recent collaborative capsule and in-store exhibition with artistJonathan Lyndon Chase, and the revival ofAcne Paperin 2021, this announcement comes as a natural next step for the Jonny Johansson-led label, who's legacy is inextricable with conceptual photography and off-body artistry. Named after the brand's semi-annual publication, much like Acne Paper, the gallery will serve as an interdisciplinary forum for emerging and established voices making waves in their respective lanes. The space, which overlooks the lush garden complex, will host a range of rotating exhibitions, artist talks and book launches, furthering Acne Studios' commitment to creativity at large. Acne Paper Palais Royal will open on June 26 with a solo exhibition by Dutch fashion and fine arts photographerPaul Kooiker, whose surreal captures recently graced the pages of the latestGoldenedition. The inaugural show, titled2025, will present 42 portraits of students at the Gerri Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. With a picture day-esque flair, the images capture the uncertain tension of the present often tied to life milestones. The gallery not only affirms the brand's 'porous,' cross-cultural ethos, but pays tribute the early days of ACNE, the design and film-focused creative collective that gave rise to the house that so many know and love today. Since its founding in 1996, Acne Studios has treated fashion as just one part of a wider creative language, and with this space comes a new chapter, steadfast and true to that mission.
