‘What actually happens when you bring a pint back.’ A Bartender Showed How She Tricks Customers Into Thinking She’s Replacing the Drinks They Think Are Bad

If you’ve ever sent your drink back at a bar and thought you were supplied with a new, fresh one, this video might bum you out a little bit.

The folks behind an English pub in Coventry, England shared a video of how a bartender dealt with a customer who wanted a “bad” drink replaced.

The video went viral in a big way and got people talking on TikTok.

The text overlay in the video reads, “What actually happens when you bring a pint back.”

A customer tells the bartender that the beer tastes funny so the barkeep heads down a flight of stairs to where the kegs are stored at the bar, fiddles with some hoses, and then looks at her phone for a bit.

She then heads back up to the bar, fills a glass, and gives it to the customer.

The moral of the story: bartenders aren’t really changing anything and you’re getting the same beer after you complain.

Doh!

Take a look at the video.

One person said this looks familiar…

Another said this kind of beer ALWAYS tastes bad.

And another TikTokker made an incredibly sarcastic comment about this woman.

I mean… you knew that this was happening. We all did.
