Tip for amateur bartenders and waiters

Beer foam is not whipped cream.

Specifically, while a small head of foam is fine while inside the glass, there should not be an overflowing dome of foam rising above the rim of the glass.

More specifically, if you did pour a little bit too much beer, or too quickly, and you have foam rising and forming over the rim of the glass, scrape it off.

Yes, before serving it.

Failure to do so can, and will, result in much lower monetary tip/service.
