t takes more than a pretty face to serve beer at our local beer bars. You have to know your stuff, too. So, because we’ve got a lot to learn about the wide world of beer
styles and glassware brands, we headed over to Toronado to share a few pints (or chalices and champagne flutes, as it were) with local ‘tenders Brandy, Brianne, Chandra, Jenna and Melanie.
Westmalle Tripel quickly became the beer of choice for the morning (fitting for the Belgian- inspired bar) and we rattled off a few questions everyone answered well. Can you think of something you’d like to ask the ladies about beer? You’ll have your chance on Thursday nights, as members of this all-star, all-lady bar staff sling suds and smiles in North Park.
