How to Pour the Perfect Pint of Guinness

[@Luschan]

This is great, and also flashes me back to my youth in the trenches of the service industry. The stress of being new, listening closely while the basics are explained to you, and then being pushed out of the nest into the deep end. Too busy of a night to get help when you blank on something, having to push forward and fake confidence without hopefully screwing anything up. And then in a few months, it's all routine and you're the one training the new guy.

Congrats in starting shortly too never pulled a pint in my life, how long do you leave it to sit for before you top it up? ♥ 🍻

One of the best pubs I've been to. I wake up in a cold sweat thinking of a pint from Gravediggers.

Definitely the best pint of Guinness in Dublin. When my brother in law was here visiting from the states this is where he had his first pint and he was a little disappointed with all the ones he had after. He even commented that a Gravediggers pint is better than the one you get at the actual Guinness Brewery tour.

[@warrencoakley]

It is better than the Guinness store house pint. And many other pubs are better too.

Had the best pint of Guinness at Dublin Airport

[@hyrule5975]

the pint in the storehouse actually is one of my least favourites EVER

[@FunsongsMusicByPeterRahill]

Visiting this 'party' for my first time in 2024 - after hearing a few mates 'complain' about the taste of a pint spoiled by (is that possible?) an incorrect pour. Cool to see this demonstration, and that the top of the finished pour is actually 'above the rim' with surface tension. I recently found a local brewer who sells canned pints of a tasty Coffee Stout - it looks and tastes like a Guinness, with a bit of coffee, which would make sense. The 'new' Guinness "0" (Zero) is a decent option when playing a gig that requires keepin' yer wits about ya... sort of... it's a trad seisiún - so 'proper lubrication' is still an important ingredient. Your mileage may vary. Thanks for this demonstration! "Cheers!" and "Sláinte!"

[@kateanddavelacey2267]

My Mrs said are you mental watching people pouring Guinness? I said well let me go to the Pub then😊 We're from Thornaby Middlesbrough Northeast England, and to be fair my local the Roundel does the best pint Guinness I've had outside of Ireland. Her favourite pic of me is with a pint of Guinness a bowl of Irish stew and a bit of soda bread in Dublin! Great video lads slàinte.

[@LDmagnum]

The barmen seem like great guys in that pub

[@pb51-d8f]

Believe or not, I went to an Irish pub in Phoenix Arizona and order a Guinness. My wife was concerned that she got her drink,but I was still waiting. I told her not to worry, because they were most likely doing it proper.It was perfect.

[@ronanquinn8503]

Watching this while the pubs are closed is making me cry

[@hammurds]

I love you play Thin Lizzy. Very fitting

[@ciananmacreamoinn9253]

I've heard an even tastier Guinness is poured in 3 or even 4 pours. There's a local pub in Leitrim where the barman does that and his pints are legendary.

[@quack437]

Iv worked in a bar and done a 3 part pour and i was told it was a real good guiness , its just if its busy you dont havetime

[@rrkanoe56]

Are you able to elaborate on the 3-4 pour process? I’m very curious.

[@Fizzure3000]

Could be, but the official way to pour a Gunniess is the 2-stage pour.

[@warrencoakley]

Ah sure look. Good effort man. Ciaráns a gent. Still the best pint in Dublin. Ciarán is also a chef. You should try his Coddle with a pint. Unbelievable.

[@daraghcurran]

Ciaran is an absolute legend

[@fryewerk]

I'd like to see a new version of this, with a separate cam on the glass itself. Kind of missing some detail.

[@ajlaconspiracy213]

Starting my first job as a bartender on Friday ahhhhh

[@rosealiemarie10289]

Prob a silly question does that method work for all types of beer or just Gunness

[@redskullproductions6914]

The filling it up 3/4 and waiting to settle is mainly for stout(Guinness,Beamish,Murphy's etc) There is a Kilkenny cream ale that you do the same thing with but with Lager,cider and IPA you can just fill right to the top keeping it tilted at 45 degrees and then straightening it as it fills to the top i've probably complicated it with this explanation but i hope it helps😂

[@michaelbuchanan2900]

what a barman class

[@kristine6473]

I’m in the mood for a Guinness now

[@boston....morethanafeeling1976]

This was great 👍

[@robertellis6]

They say never to touch the nozzle in the beer or glass as there is bacteria.

[@lewis8634]

Thats why you clean and wipe the nozzle..

[@shayreilly7943]

worth it for a class pint lmfao

[@Liam-O1]

plenty of bartenders do it including me from time to time as it regulates the beer

[@triturn8676]

you clean it on and off. Also the only way the bacteria can get there is if you reuse a glass that a customer has used. Always use a clean glass and you should be fine

[@humanhornet4559]

I bloody knew you should pour it at an angle, my local pub with the only Guinness tap in town pours it with the glass flat on the bar, leaves it halfway to settle then comes back and pours the rest and it frustrates the hell out of me, reckon I might have to tell em how to do it properly

[@bobjamaica9045]

Just tell them you’re pouring that shit wrong I’m not paying for a pint like that….

[@DEVIL10116]

Is the tap cleaned after each pour? If not, wouldn't that be unsanitary?

[@TeoOktoberfest]

Cheers 🍻🍻🍻Munich

[@gerardoneill1513]

Don't take the way of pouring a pint of that guy. Five stages of pouring a pint of Guinness get a clean glass angle it in and pull the tap quick towards you, second step is bring it up to the top of the harp, third step let it settle, fourth step let it sit on the drip tray and finish it off with a back pour, and the fifth step is to serve it to the customer with please enjoy, anyone pouring a Guinness other than this way are doing it wrong, learn the five steps, if the head is big check the gas, or are lines cleaned properly, onced you are confident that you have both you will pour a great pint of Guinness following the first steps, don't try to run before you can walk.

[@zay-ju8fb]

I like to just pour the full pint straight in no angle no settling then guzzle it

[@_biggaz]

shut up u clown😂. Always one know all. And i thought “experts” in the videos were bad, then u find tools like this in the comments😂, with 5 step tutorials - telling people even if they dont say “please enjoy” theyre pouring a guiness wrong😂😂. Who made these rules? You? Are u the be all and end all now?

[@ashleighpiccinino1849]

Also, is it correct that you do this at the personstable, letting the drink settle halfway through, and just talking for a while before topping it off? I guess you don’t want to destroy the head, correct? of course, as a person who is totally blind, I have heard this, but I had to flee. Cannot see it for myself.

[@Boss12r3]

Step 1 : leave Wetherspoons

[@ashleighpiccinino1849]

However, how would you do this, if you were totally blind? I am one of those people, a person who is totally blind. Of course, I don’t own a bar or anything like that, but I like the taste of this Irish beer.
