Hey Kids, Just a public service announcement about poring beer from a tap...1. Place a few fingers behind the tap lever close to the faucet rather than the top. Open the faucet completely, opening it slowly or not all the way causes too much foam. 2. Hold the glass at a 45-degree angle just below the spout, aim the stream at the middle of the slope of the glass. 3. Add distance slowly between the spout and the top of your glass as you pour to create a good head. Head on beer is necessary to release the beer's aroma and taste. Head size depends on beer style but an inch to an inch and a half is a good rule of thumb. 4. Flip the tap back quickly with your thumb to close the faucet. 5. Enjoy!

Like riding the mud it just takes practice, have fun and impress your friends at the next beer tent you pin a number on for!
