In the month since Pouring Ribbons opened, owners Joaquin Simo, Jason Cott, Troy Sidle, and Toby Maloney have been stirring up more than cocktails: they’ve been waging a friendly(?) Twitter war with “the boys” over at the neighborhood’s other recently opened cocktail spot, Evelyn Drinkery. It all seems to have started when Evelyn Drinkery asked whether Pouring Ribbons was a sewing club, and quickly devolved into accusations involving armpit hair, man purses, phosphate drinks and Taylor Swift. Oh, those crazy cocktalians!

Anyway, after all the back and forth (which you can read for yourself below), we just had to stop into Pouring Ribbons and see what the place was all about (sorry, Evelyn Drinkery, but Mr. Simo, formerly of Death & Co., is the American Bartender of the Year). Despite all the tomfoolery on Twitter, they take their cocktails pretty seriously, as you can see in our video above.

Pouring Ribbons, 9/19: We’ll NEVER go here! We hope these guys do horribly. Cuz they’re meanies! @evelyndrinkery #frenemies #seriouslywehateyou

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons is this a sewing club? #frenemies #realmendontsew
(@EvelynDrinkery)

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Pfff. No, we’re a dance club actually – Will Ferrel style: goo.gl/6Hh79 #frenemies #realMenDance

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons I bet you dance you little pansies. We line dance. Real men line dance!

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Oh, that’s really cool. Can you show us how while performing your molecular gastrixology phosphate drinks?

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons dicks!

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Potty mouths. #buttonsJacket #standsUpStraight #holdsOutArmForGirlfriend #walksOffIntoTheSunset

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons #girlfriend? That’s a big word for a bunch silly nannies! #shotsofwhiskey #beardsandwood! #fightsbearswithbarehands

Evelyn Drinkery, 9/24: Come by @evelyndrinkery to watch the game. U could go to @pouringribbons but they only watch ice skating. #frenemies #sillynannies!

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Spend your evening watching grown men in costumes battle over something that doesn’t really matter. No judgement. #frenemies

Pouring Ribbons, 9/28: @evelyndrinkery The entire Pouring Ribbons staff has decided to go as an Evelyn Drinkery barback for halloween.

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons make sure you have left handed pour spouts! #poorlittlefella! #barbackhazing

Pouring Ribbons, 10/3: @evelyndrinkery Hey, have you guys implemented your scratch n’ sniff chalkboard menu yet?

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons it debuts next week. However we heard your scratch and sniff bartenders beat us to the punch #frenemies

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Yeah, if you scratch Joaquín on the shoulder he smells like single village artisanal mezcal.

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons is that from all the dranks he spilled on Friday?

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Bartender of the Year does not spill. He dabs it behind is ears. #frenemyThrowDown

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons he dabbed it behind everyone’s ears! #frenemyThrowDown #urnevergonnawin #myCollinsIsBiggerThanYours

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Real mature. #frenemyThrowDown

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons we’re as mature as an epsiode of Webster #frenemyThrowDown

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery Whatever. Staring contest tomorrow morning at 3 pm. Ninth Street Espresso (the one on Tenth Street). Loser buys.

Evelyn Drinkery, 10/4: @pouringribbons you guys wearing those cute knickers & your man purses tonight? @evelyndrinkeryis wearing a tank top #badass #mezcal

Pouring Ribbons:@evelyndrinkery We would sport tank tops but we couldn’t find underarm hair nets. You know, health codes. You guys shave, right? #frenemies

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons we shave! #michaelphelps #chicksdigbabypits how’s your wombat sitch? Wanna borrow out razors?

Evelyn Drinkery: @pouringribbons you hear Taylor Swift. @evelyndrinkery you hear James Taylor.

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery But it’s not like we over do it. We only play Taylor Swift once per hour.

Evelyn Drinkery, 10/6: @pouringribbons hey #bestie how’s life on Ave B? We are a bit lonely. Wanna come down for a #spiritedphosphate or a hug? #frenemies

Pouring Ribbons: @evelyndrinkery What a coincidence. Our door guy is giving free hugs to the first 300 guests tonight.
