Thanks for the video! I've just started my first bar job and during my first shift, i was really inconsistent when it came to beer out of a tap. Would the type of beer eg Guinness or draught, have different heading effects and consistency?

[barsandbartending]

@MrAlvarezMan Guinness is a stout and stouts are in a special class of their own. Guinness for example uses a different gas than say Carslberg and the head and pouring techniques differ drastically. Btw, draught simply refers to a beer that's available from a keg. Any type of beer can be draught (or draft). The consistency of lagers and ales will have more to do with the temperature of the kegs, the cleanliness of the lines, the length of the hose from the kegs to the taps etc

i only started bar work, the one beer i seem to balls up is a pint of carlsberg, even if i have it at 45 theres always a large head on it?

[barsandbartending]

@liammcgeehotmail Could be a beer gas problem if it's on its own line. Or, if you're using frosted mugs, try using just chilled mugs instead. However, it sounds like you're saying that you pour all the other drafts ok but only have issues with the Carlsberg. If that's true, you may need to get someone in to clean the lines or try letting out the first half second worth of beer before putting the glass under the tap. Sometimes the warm stuff at the end of the tap causes too much head.

@liammcgeehotmail same for me Carlsberd and a beer we do in Northern Ireland called pretty similar but rather annoying because its the one that there should be nothing to it

[barsandbartending]

@ninjaturtledude999 try calling in your Carlsberg and Harp representatives and have them take a look at your draught lines. They should be able to tell if something is amiss and causing your foam problem.

@ninjaturtledude999 sorry its called Harp
