I pit bartenders who do not know how to properly pour a pint of Guinness.

It’ll get there eventually – what’s your hurry? :wink:

I worked as a bartender in an English pub for a few months when I was 18. I was just thrown back there and expected to deal with whatever. Mostly, it was simple: rum and coke, gin and tonic, pint of lager, half of bitter, measure of scotch, easy stuff. Nobody ever asked for sex on the beach or a harvey wallbanger.

But the Guinness pour was nerve-wracking. Those fuckers would just stare and stare, waiting for me to fuck it up somehow. But I learned, and it does make a difference. Should be a basic for any competent bartender, if they’re selling the stuff.

Well, if it’s Coors or Budweiser, it’s already there, just canned.

That’s what I keep telling her, but nooo…

It takes a big man to threadshit in a beer thread. Just sayin.

Just pour me this and I’ll be ok :slight_smile:

Big asshole, you mean. I’ve never seen CR post anything worthwhile yet, and I doubt I ever will. In the words of Gunny Hartman, the best part of him ran down his mama’s leg.

Guinness is food.

Hmmm, true.

My dad has a recipe for bread that’s just beer and flower. Damn, it’s good.

Hell yeah. Now I’m thirsty :frowning:

Apparently it is, as you couldn’t be bothered to write it out or even cut & paste.

Anyway, it’s nonsense. It tastes perfectly fine even if consumed directly from the bottle.

Now yes, it’s true if you don’t take some care & time you end up with too little beer and too much foam, which if I am paying for beer is a crime.

What kind of flower? Daisies? Carnations? :smiley:

ETA: I imagine that bread has a really nice bouquet!

Stella Artois Nine Step Pouring Ritual.

What’s mandatory - the shamrock, or the stabbing?

It’s a good bet Bricker has at least $1500 worth.

Now THAT’S some good fucking pretentious twaddle!

But a beautiful poster. I don’t like their beer, but they do cool marketing. I own a few Stella chalices, and a special fancy knife for cutting the head. :cool:

Over the top video of the nine step ritual pour.

Both. Makes a good show for the tourists.

That’s awesome … that SA created it makes it priceless.

Guinness = ambrosia

Yes, too big a head is a waste.
I admit I haven’t shopped around America for a better stout. There is a nice fairly cheap bottled half and half from Yuengling that I enjoy with many meals.
