A tip for a tip

Tip from the other side of the bar: When someone asks what kind of bottled beer you have, don't point to a row of empties on display. Even if you have to rattle off a few, or show a list if it's available, or even ask what the person is looking for. There is a great local restaurant, it serves creative and delicious meals. The bartender sucks. Not only does he give "the point" but he'll ignore you at the bar (which only seats about 12) until he's ready to serve you. A tip? Get a new bartender.

My favorite beer...this season

This blog got stale. I'm taking over because bartendermagic.com's main bartender doesn't seem to have the time. For my first post I'm going to tell you about my favorite seasonal beer. Shipyard Brewing Co. makes a pumpkin beer that tastes like dessert. Shipyard Pumpkinhead Ale is only available September through October, so stock up. Click here to learn more.
