Hey Mango, do you know of any flair bartending schools near Minnesota??
we pop it off and while it is falling in the air we smack the cap at each other
nice video, thanks for taking the time to give a proper lesson
@shronked
Like Bacardi Breezer, Smirnoff Ice ect.
You should open any other bottles than beer, coz they don’t foam over
@woooooooooof —— Hater…… we have those at my job…… Chris you are the shit and i appricate the in depth detail you put in ur videos….. Thanks a bunch, learned alot from you so far
Man i love ths trick….. the guest like they think it is really cool, and they say it kinda reminds them of popping the top off capaign
@shronked Sometimes I find that if the beer isn’t cold enough, I get more foam than from ice cold beers.
bro… if u elaborated less on every fucking detail u talk about, i would enjoy seeing u, but u speak too fucking much… but other than that, very good…
@shronked Hey its most likely because you’ve dropped the bottle and shaken it up slightly while its in your hand, however the most likely reason is because you’ve pulled it from a dump fridge. To combat this either squash your hand or bar blade over the opening and after 2/3 seconds it will be fine, customers tend not to mind if you use your hand, they’d much rather have a full drink, and if you feel like it you can just give it a quick wipe with a towel. Hope that helps.
@shronked If that happens its usually because you’ve dropped the bottle down while still holding it or in most cases you’ve pulled it from a dump fridge. The best way i find is either squash your hand over it or for a more hygienic way squash your bar blade on top and then just slide it off, it looks good and customers are happier because they have a full beer, it also works with alcopops and if it fizzes over just recover the same way.
In the two countries I’ve lived in service staff do earn good salaries and no one tips.
service industry staff dont get a real wage anywhere and probably make more money in the west where people tip, also this isnt really flair
i just uploaded my own video on bottle pop’n , but i make the bottom pop off
I found this video because I didn’t know what falir bartending is so I searched for it.
Well you sound very professional and serious about your job, but I wonder what sort of superfical wankers are impressed by this. I guess it’s different in the US were service staff don’t get a real wage and survive on tips.
years ago when i first tried this out, ive broken a couple of bottles. and got some foam. then with practice i perfected it. but i havent done it lately. its been a good while. it is a fun easy move….
