  • INTRODUCTION “So a Guy Walks Into a Bar and Asks the Bartender…..”
    Bartender Tips, Tricks and Drink Recipes INTRODUCTION “So a guy walks into a bar and asks the bartender…..” How many jokes have you heard start out that way. The bartender is the main focus of any commercial bar. Forget about the waitresses. Sure they bring the drinks, but the bartender has to make them. Forget about the fry cooks serving up greasy fries. It‟s the bartender who has made you crave them. Bartenders have enjoyed a long and storied history. They are the psychiatrists that you don‟t have to have an appointment for. They are the ones you hear all the best jokes from. They are the ones who show you the neatest bar tricks to impress your friends. The bartender, for some people, is the best friend they never had. Tending bar is more than just pouring a cold draught beer or mixing up a mean screwdriver. With all the new drink combinations out these days, bartenders must be up on all the new terminology not to mention having the ability to mix up an Alabama Slammer without looking in the recipe book. Bartending schools are popping up all over the country. Lured by the enticement of cash tips for serving the drunken public, bartending has been elevated to an art form. When the movie “Cocktail” came out, bartenders sought out the ability to twirl bottles and throw them up in the air as the bottle pours a perfect shot before it lands softly in their hand. Few can argue this is something not the everyday Joe can do.

  • Bartender Job Analysis for the Pub*
    Bartender Job Analysis for the Pub* By Michelle Allen Sean Enright Nathan Jansch Daniel Lehmann Greg Schaefer Note: This was an excellent paper at its time, but many of the requirements have since changed a bit. So look at it for general ideas, but not for details. Management 4020 Professor Rossé December 7, 1999 * Not really the name of the establishment xxxxxx Pub xxxxxxxx Boulder, CO 80302 Dear Mr. xxxxxx, Thank you for allowing us to complete a job analysis on the bartender position at the Pub. We have all learned some very valuable information about the hiring process this semester in our hiring class at CU, and your allowing us to evaluate the bartender position has greatly aided in that learning process. The bartending position at the Pub restaurant and bar requires a number of critical attributes and skills in to properly fulfill the restaurant’s desire to serve its guests. Because of the relatively small size of the restaurant and high demand on restaurant’s services, the bartending position requires a fully competent and capable person to fill the position. With a wide array of potential responsibilities, and because of the Pub’s desire to serve their patrons in the best manner possible, we have developed a system to better identify bartending candidates for this establishment. Rather than basing the application review process solely upon interviews (which is a common hiring method), this system incorporates a number of components in order to obtain a complete and accurate assessment of potential bartending employees. This system utilizes the best elements of an application, interviews, work samples, and other review elements to select the best applicants for the job.

  • Bar Tools the Bartender’S Best Friends Behind the Stick by Brandy Rand
    TOOLSOFTHETRADE Bar Tools The bartender’s best friends behind the stick BY BRANDY RAND We asked the country’s busiest bartenders to give us their must-have bar tools—easy to use, sturdy enough to withstand the weekend slam, and functionally superior to the basics. Here are some of their favorite items so you can pour, measure, muddle, stir, shake, strain and squeeze with ease. 2 1. KORIKO WEIGHTED MIXING TIN 1 Though there are a thousand shakers on the market, these earn high praise from bartenders for a big performance: self-sealing, no sticking and a high velocity (and noisy) shake. The small is 18 ounces and large is 28; and because they are stainless steel, durability is a done deal. 3 $7.95 for small, $8.95 for large at cocktailkingdom.com 2. PUG! MUDDLER Despite the proliferation of plastic and metal muddlers, most bartend- ers agree that an un-varnished wooden one is the way to go. PUG! muddlers are deemed some of the best as they are handmade and available in a variety of hardwoods: maple, cherry and jatoba. $40 at thebostonshaker.com 3. OXO MINI ANGLED MEASURING CUP A “why didn’t anyone do this sooner” measuring cup that has cocktail- size ounce, milliliter and tablespoon measurements on the inside so you can read from the top as you pour. The angled spout eliminates 4 spills and clear plastic with brightly colored markings makes it easy to read in dimly lit bars. $3.99 at oxo.com 5 4. RSVP ENDURANCE LEMON & LIME SQUEEZER It’s all in the squeeze with a handle ergonomically designed to provide leverage for a good juicing.

  • Bartenders and Customers' Interactions. Influence on Sexual
    sustainability Article Bartenders and Customers’ Interactions. Influence on Sexual Assaults in Nightlife Elena Duque 1 , Javier Rodríguez-Conde 2,Lídia Puigvert 3,* and Juan C. Peña-Axt 4 1 Department of Theory and History of Education, University of Barcelona, 08035 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Law, University of Barcelona, 08034 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] 3 Department of Sociological Theory, University of Barcelona, 08034 Barcelona, Spain 4 Instituto de Estudios Sociales y Humanísticos IDESH, Universidad Autónoma de Chile, Santiago 7500912, Chile; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 24 June 2020; Accepted: 27 July 2020; Published: 29 July 2020 Abstract: Nightlife establishments are meeting points for what the scientific literature has called “hookups” or “one-night stands”—that is, uncommitted sexual relationships that can sometimes result in unwanted or even violent experiences. The scientific literature has identified that sexual assault has usually been connected with alcohol abuse. Other studies have found that nightlife staff can be an active or passive party to violent events (sexual or otherwise), especially bouncers. However, less attention has been paid to bartenders, and their involvement in such events has not been analyzed in depth. This article presents an exploration of how some male bartenders interact with some male customers in the nightlife context to promote sexual relationships and how their interactions might influence possible sexual assault situations. The results of this study shed light on and help us to understand why sexual assault occurs in these spaces. Keywords: nightlife; hookups; sexual assault; bartenders; interactions; risk factors 1.

Bartender Learner Guide The Bartender 00:45 Overview *Introduction from Kim Spence, our resident Sommelier, Mixologist, Barman* I thought that working as a barman would be a fun, a great way to make some money, but I didn’t consider it a career. I was sure that this was a trade people outgrew. I mean, who would want to work in the liquor industry their entire life? At some point I would have to grow up and get a real job. Wouldn’t I? There were just so many aspects of the job that I loved. I was working with ingredients created by masters; people that had dedicated their lives and generations to making something special. Every time I picked up a great bottle I felt honoured to pour it. I was able to hone techniques – the basics of bartending – while making it look effortless. I tend to throw myself into things no matter what I do, so I started reading about wine, beer, liquor and spirits; I realized that this industry isn’t new and is certainly not a passing fad.
