From providing liquid courage to the numbing benefits imparted on tingling nerves, a shot at the bar is a long-time companion to fresh ink. Tuaca and Inked magazine team up—making the connection official—to sponsor a bar competition of the boldest shot made with the vanilla citrus liqueur. Six local—and tattooed—bartenders face off in hopes of earning the ultimate honor of showcasing their body art within Inked magazine. Corey Miller—tattoo artist from reality television show LA Inked— will serve as the master of ceremonies and DJ RaviDrums will give a live performance. Fri 8 p.m.
