Interview with Heineken's 'Head Pourer' in Metro 15 years 6 months ago #1

Did anyone read this spurious psydo-science?

Such gems include the most bitter part of the hop being contained in the very top of the foam and lack of 'skimming' the beer leading to more frequent urination.

I cannot think of any rationale for this other than pouring more beer, so more kegs are ordered, mind you I am not science inclined.

Also, does C02 [i:pvtz00zn]aid[/i:pvtz00zn] digestion?!!

In the pub. Heineken have employed someone to train staff in the pouring of the Heineken super-cold and the metro interviewed him about pouring the perfect pint of Heineken. <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt=":?" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? -->
