Me: "Is there anything special tapped that's not on the beer menu?"
Waitress: "There may be a couple things."
Me: Waiting...
Waitress: "But most people just order from the menu. There's a lot on it."
Me: Blink
Waitress: "It's usually the opposite. There might be some beers on the menu we're out of."
Me: "Um, thanks."
Waitress: Leaves without naming those other beers or taking any orders.
We finally got in a beer order, from the menu. When Colleen's hefeweizen arrived, it had an appearance similar to weak chocolate milk. We had enjoyed this same beer recently so I know it's not supposed to look like that. It's properly hazy, not sludgy.
Waitress: "If you're wondering why the beer looks that way, it's the bottom of the keg. But believe me, that's the best part."

ReplyDeleteSpeaking for the professional service industry- that girl needs to be fired. All I can do is shake my head and hope that you didn't tip her. You are a gentle soul to not have waged war and demanded discounts (there would have been a manager at my table in minutes).
"believe me, thats the best part." I'm mind boggled. Did you drink it?!
We didn't raise a stink. There was much fail in the service that evening, we had to laugh. Like watching a train wreck, we couldn't look away. :-) We frequent this place, and the evening was an aberration., with a very distracted server.
