Simple Solutions To Stop Overfilled Pints
I've Been There
When I was in F&B, I struggled to solve the on-going problem of over-filled pints being served to my guests.
Guests never complained because they were getting more beer, but the hit to my bottom line was massive.
I was told that it is "just a cost of doing business" and that everyone struggles with it.
Even my draught service company said they couldn't solve the problem.
I left restaurant operations and have been working on helping people improve their draught quality, profitability, and sales for the past 20 years.
Here is what I have learned:
The two main reasons you have overfilled pints and are wasting thousands:
Your staff:
- They overfill glasses because they don't understand why the dime-sized head is important.
- They can't explain the reasons for the head to a guest, so they fill it to the brim when they get push-back.
- They don't realize how much lost profit this costs you: ~ $12,000 a year.
- They don't realize how much money in sales and tips you are both losing because guests are full and bloated from drinking over-carbonated draught.
Your dirty draught glasses:
- Covered with an invisible film of oil and grease (from fingers, dirty napkins, dairy, and pop) the head of the pint won't stick and falls within seconds of pouring.
- As pints sit on the Service Bar, your servers stir the pint with a straw, aka: "The Service Swirl".
- Or they "Top-it-up" with twenty cents of your money in each pint
We have proven, inexpensive, guaranteed, easy-to-implement solutions for both of these costly problems.

ClubLink Case Study
ClubLink is Canada’s largest owner and operator of golf clubs with 30 locations in Ontario.
The information in this case study was gathered from a project where 10 of the 30 ClubLink Ontario golf clubs came on the BetterBeer.com program in the summer of 2016. The ten clubs chosen were of various size, from their largest to one of their smallest.
ClubLink had two goals: 1) to increase beer sales, and 2) lower draught cost of goods percentage.

“It was certainly, if not the only influence, it certainly was the biggest influence for making improvements.”

- Monthly audits of the club’s draught system. Audits cover everything from keg to glass. Six unannounced audits were conducted, one each calendar month, May – October.
Each club was scored out of 100. - Passcodes to the Serve Better Beer online draught quality and profitability course for
bartenders, managers, and servers. - A Beer Glass Cleaning Kit to ensure pints had good head retention for better quality and
profitability. Lowers comps, increases re-orders. - An in-person draught training and on-boarding seminar with all the club’s Food and Beverage Managers at the beginning of the season.

For years, restaurant operators everywhere have struggled to keep track of their line cleaning.
We sure did when we were running restaurants.
We had questions like these:
- Which lines were cleaned when, and by whom?
- How long has it been since they were cleaned last?
- I haven't seen that line cleaner in ages? Did they come in on my day off?
Finally, these questions can be answered.
Introducing the Better Beer line cleaning tracking system.
