| Description: | AKA "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Serving Beer", as fitting a title as it is a synopsisàà opening beauty shot montage of glass goblets being filled with "beautiful" Schlitz beer. Cut to EST shots antique facades of the Brown Bottle hospitality area at Joseph Schlitz brewery, tour group entering bar. INT shots old-world tavern with large dark wood bar. ECU's antique beer steins and platters. CU ornate tap knobs for Schlitz product line: Schlitz, Old Milwaukee, Encore and Schlitz Malt Liquor. MS's & CU's well-dressed black and white adults sitting in tavern, talking and drinking beer. MS's & CU's Barney the bartender-who's been doing this for seventy-five years, by the way-professionally drawing tap beer for tourists. CU's proper three-tub method of cleaning glasses: washing & brushing in tub of detergent solution, rinsed in separate tank, sterilized in disinfectant, turned upside down to dry on wire rack. CU glass being towel dried, apparently a no-no. CU dirty and beer-clean glasses on counter, beer being poured into them; the head in the clean glass hold much longer due to lack of residue, unlike the towel-dried one. CU's & ECU's Barney properly drawing tap beer: full throttle on knob, distance from faucet to glass, beer striking side of glass. CU proper method of pouring from bottle into glass. CU's different types of glasses. CU's economics lesson involving properly vs. improperly poured glasses (getting the most out of your keg). CU beer in drain tub, excess foam being leveled off. Recap at end. | |
