happy hour #22

In this Happy Hour, we are privileged to sit down with the Mad Mixologist, life-long bartender, magician, ringmaster, and inventor, Dean Serneels. Dean is the inventor of the Flairco flair bottle, the portable flair bar, and the dazzling floating tin bar trick. We discuss the origins, and early days, of the flair bottle, and what bottle, or bottles, it was really designed after. We talk about the flair bartending phenomenon that started taking over in the 1990's, and his impact on the evolution of flair bartending. Flair is much more than tossing bottles around these days as With over 30 years experience, Dean brings magic and cool bar tricks to satisfy his guests as well. We have an intriguing conversation about the Art and Science behind Mixology and Hospitality, and settle the age old debate of whether or not there is a true difference between a Mixologist, and a Bartender. Now days, Dean works for American Beverage Marketers with companies such as Finest Call Premium Cocktail Mixes and RE'AL Cocktail Ingredients, all while launching his new YouTube series, Behind The Glass with Dean Serneels. Do not miss out on this very entertaining episode!
