Why would a bar stock Magners in a can and then put it on tap?

Buying a cheaper drink and tipping the bartender more is real class solidarity imo

tipping average over the last few weeks is above 50% drink price
― calstars, Sunday, 17 December 2023 18:42 (four months ago) link
This 1 seems to have no clue what a buy back is after 4 at 50% so I will have to decrease my tipping sorry
― calstars, Sunday, 17 December 2023 21:48 (four months ago) link
I don't get this tipping 50% business. So you've paid the price of six drinks, have been served four drinks, and are hoping for the bartender to graciously serve you a fifth drink?
― Josefa, Sunday, 17 December 2023 22:42 (four months ago) link
Right
― calstars, Sunday, 17 December 2023 22:47 (four months ago) link
And your response to that is, I'll show that bartender, I'll pay for another drink and tip them a regular amount

Classic or dud: bartenders who offer shots in lieu of buybacks
― calstars, Wednesday, 27 December 2023 22:41 (four months ago) link
Depends on the shot I suppose:something tasty that I've never had before or wouldn't have ordered myself = classicMy choice = oddly transactional but still coolSomething gross like jager= dud***Bonus points*** if the bartender does a shot with you
When I bartended at a chain restaurant in the 90s, a cocktail waitress once told me a previous bartender there would make a special shot called the "fuck in the forest" for annoying drunks asking for free drinks at the end of the night - he would just dump the bar mats' contents into a shaker with ice and strain them into shot glasses.
