“We’ve been bartending for… years.”
They’re offering self-certified classes taught by current and former bartenders, so there’s no way of knowing if you’re getting current, useful or even correct information until after you’ve enrolled.
We brought in the Professionals.
A Brand Ambassador from the world’s fastest growing Tequila company.
A Brewer from “Canada’s Best Brewery” 3 years in a row.
A Certified Sommelier.
An Industry Leader in Tools of the Trade.
Basically the Bartender’s Dream Team.
How does it work?
We’ve divided the program into two parts – Online and Cocktail Workshops – for a couple of reasons. First, we wanted to design a program that anyone in the world can begin instantly and learn the absolute necessities of bartending. We did that with the BareBones Online Bartending Course.
From there, if you’re located in a city offering Cocktail Workshops, you get to come in for some real experience, learn to use the tools, and have a few drinks with Professional Bartenders. Here you can ask questions about the industry, gain insights into workplace opportunities, and start your bartending career.
