best beer pour photo?

[bracconiere]

so i've seen both spilling over the side pics, and the thick head above the rim pics....both are impracticle, but which do you prefer in a photo op?


just trying to figure out if i should clean my drip tray more for the silky pouring over th rim shot, or wait to take a sip longer when i post a picture of my pint...lol

I’m all about the head

 

[bracconiere]

LOL

that's how you get the "bounce a quarter on it" thick head though?

The only one I've ever heard of having a thick enough head to do that is Guinness allegedly lol. I would pay money to see somebody float some change on their head and have it float.

i have a question now, being i learned how to get the pillow head from HBT....how DO you pour one of the spilling over the rim shots like BMC commercials?

over carbonation? a little baking soda in the bottom of the glass? lol i've done it on accident, but don't know how to do it on purpose.....

I would not expect commercials to reflect reality.
The "beer" shown may be altered - or not even be beer - to make some shots look pretty...

Cheers!

so what you're saying, is like carb it to 40psi, and serve through 1mm line? lol

Seriously, most the "food" you see in commercials isn't even edible. It may have started that way before being airbrushed, but often times it's just not food.
