  • The Behind The Back Toss

    Some people like to do what is called ‘flare tending’ and it can be a real crowd pleaser. Although a lot of the time it only slows down the process at a  busy bar, but if your bar is not busy and you want it to be, try practicing this trick! But make sure you get your RSA Certificate first!

    These kinds of tricks can be pretty fun, and don’t expect them to be something people go crazy over, but it can help liven the atmosphere up and can increase the popularity of your bar. But remember, above all else, to serve safely and correctly as the RSA Course teaches you!

     

  • Some Fun Bar Items – Not in the RSA Course!

    No, you wont find these kinds of fun items in the RSA Course online, but they can be useful to know about when you are working in a bar or restaurant, because fun items lead to a fun atmosphere. But then again, you always have to consider the situation, that you would probably not use novelty fun items in in a more relaxed bar or restaurant, they are really not designed for that. But if you work in a night club that’s really all about fun, then these items could liven up the atmosphere just as you might need. Check out some of these fun items!

    Shotz Bar Pack

    The ‘Shotz Bar Pack’ is an interesting set of novelty items for your bar that all involve shot glasses. This pack gives you, first of all – 500 shot glasses that are plastic. This is useful firstly, because as the RSA Course teaches, glass shot glasses can be dangerous as glass tends to cut and break, whereas plastic doesn’t. In addition  there are 500 shot glass caps, a shot glass tray, a bandolier to carry shots, and a belt for easy access to shots. These also come in different colours, depending on what suits your bar.

    The Leather Shooter Belt

    A leather shooter belt is exactly how it sounds, it is simply two leather belts that go around and over your chest and hold shot glasses. This adds atmosphere to a bar and adds excitement to serving. Give it a go and see if it adds to the environment of your bar!

    Jager Bomb Cups!

    That’s right, they are essentially specially designed cups that are designed for jager bombs (red bull and jagermeister). These cups can be easy to use and also mean that there is less chance of glass falling anywhere.

    Test Tube Shot Glasses

    There are another type of shot glass out there, and they simply look like a test tube. This is interesting and different, it gives people a new way to take shots, and again, they are plastic so they do not pose the danger that you would have with glass shot glasses. These test tubes also come in racks, and add a different type of atmosphere to the bar, one that steps away from the conventional shot glass approach.

    Grab your RSA Course Certificate To Use Such Things

    Before you can work in a bar and use any of these new tools, you first need to go online and complete your RSA Course, to get your RSA Certificate. This ensures responsibility and safety when serving.

     

  • The Spill Proof Beer

    Yes i know that there is really no such thing as the spill proof beer, but this ad by Hahn makes it seem so realistic, check it out below.

    If only something like this really existed! But still, it is true that alcohol is really easy to spill in a busy bar, but it is more than often spilled by those who have had a bit too much. This is one of the signs that the RSA Course teaches you to deal with!

  • What Kinds Of Beer Will You Serve Safely With The RSA Course Online

    There are a massive number of beers that a bar can choose to serve! The RSA Course will teach you how to serve any kind of beer safely so that you do not end up with patrons fighting and causing danger to themselves or others. But what you might be thinking now, is what kinds of beer do most people want? What will people settle for? and should I offer different and uncommon types of beer for a little intrigue?  Well we’ll try to help as much as possible.

    Serving an Uncommon Type of Beer

    The RSA Course will teach you how to serve alcohol correctly and safely behind a bar or in a  restaurant, but it will not teach you how to make your bar more popular, and it will not teach you which kinds of beer you need to serve to make your bar successful. But here’s a tip, you could serve at least one kind of beer that is ‘different’ or uncommon. This could be anything that is not served all that commonly in other local bars and is something that people will recognize you for. For example, ‘Bintang’ is a beer that is exclusively served in Bali, but is well known to a lot of Australians who visit the region. This beer is the kind of drink that, if you served, would allow you to distinguish your bar from others. You would become known for serving Bintang.

    Serving The More Common Beers

    There are several beers that are served more commonly in Australian bars and restaurants simply because they are a crowd pleaser and taste good to most people. But you still have a selection even if it is between the popular beers. You could choose between these, for example, Tooheys New, XXXX Bitter, Carlton Mid, and you could also have a dry beer in there like Tooheys extra dry or ‘teds.’ But ultimately the selection is up to you, so choose depending on what is a better crowd pleaser in your region, and ultimately what will bring in more customers.

  • The Three Main Types of Beer

    There are three main types of beer that you can usually choose from in a bar, but usually you won’t have to make the decision because you will just go with a brand that you like. The three main types of beer are : Lagers – Ferments in the cold and sinks to the bottom of the brew Ales – Ferments in warmer temperatures and flocculates (concentrates) at the top during brewing Specialty Beers – This is usually a brew of the two beer types and thus cannot fit into one, nor the other category So take your pick from these few beers, and pick a brand that most appeals to you! But if you want to serve these three types and thus expand your knowledge base, you first need to jump online and grab your RSA certificate! Also check out the video below on how to distinguish between different types of beer.

     

  • Delivery of Alcohol

    Alcohol can sometimes be a nuisance to pick up for the every day person, and for this reason you can have your alcohol delivered. A bar can easily find someone to deliver their alcohol and kegs etc. But what about home delivery. This kind of a tip is not something you will find in the RSA course, but it is still handy and can be really helpful. You can use the delivery of alcohol for a few reasons, from sending a birthday present to spoiling yourself, or even if you are just lazy!

    So if you are looking for someone to deliver your alcohol, check out this site. They give good deals and can deliver a whole range of alcohol.

     

  • Hiring Bartenders – They Need Their RSA Certificate!

    If you are planning on hosting an event of some sort then the chances are that you will need to hire bar tenders to serve drinks for you, but you need to know that they have to have their RSA certificate to serve for you, otherwise you could get in some serious trouble with the law. This is only really a problem if you are hosting a large enough event that you will need bar tenders, as people usually have BYO events where they serve themselves.

    Hiring Bartenders With An RSA Certificate

    It would be really uncommon for a bar tender hire company to not have the RSA certificate for each of their tenders, this is because, as you see in the RSA Course, it is illegal to serve alcohol at any establishment if you do not have your RSA certificate. But so long as you go with a company, you should be fine with the law, so long as you just ask them if they have their RSA certificate before serving. If you are looking for a site that you can go to when looking for bar tenders, then check out this site, it has some really good testimonials; one of which can be seen below. “Hi Luke, Thank you so much for a truly amazing evening on Saturday night. The compliments we’ve received back from our guests have been amazing. You and Chris made our night. I know our guests kept you really busy. I didn’t even see you stop for a minute. It was a special occasion and having you there to make those amazing cocktails added to the sparkle. Its been a few days since the party and the compliments keep flowing. Keep up the good work guys. Hey and you even clean up after yourself! Once again Cheers and thank you for making Micks 50th Birthday a memorable one. Linda, Ferntree Gully.”

    So Why Should I Get My RSA Certificate?

    There are a lot of reasons for you to get online and grab your RSA Certificate, and the main one is that you could even work as one of these bar tenders for hire. The pay is good, and you get to meet a lot of new people. So if you like being sociable and having fun at a job, then you should definitely get online and complete your RSA Certificate course, as it is fast, straightforward and is really useful.

  • RSA Course Online – Bar Tips – How Can I Liven Up My Bar?

    The RSA Course  is all about responsible service of alcohol, to ensure everyone can have fun while drinking.  To liven up your bar or restaurant there are a few things that can be done. Because as much as the bar tender tries, it is not entirely up to them to make a bar, club or restaurant more fun, it is up to the managers and owners to create a culture that ensures this. So how can you make your establishment more fun?

    Karaoke?

    It might have been done many times before, but that doesn’t mean that you should not give karaoke a try in your bar or restaurant. But this is something to be careful about, because in general, night clubs are known for a theme or atmosphere, and if you are going to use karaoke, then you might consider using it every night rather than just using it one night of the week. This way you will be known for karaoke rather than anything else. Otherwise you could put karaoke  on a quiet night to attract a different crowd. Contests? Contests are a pretty simple idea and could really be anything (they could even be a drinking game so long as you still serve responsibly with RSA Course compliance). But this could be anything from an amazing race simulation to an Australian Idol competition, be creative! Popular/Famous Signings?

    Yeah, it could be pretty hard to get some famous people to come to your establishment, and this only really works in bars or restaurants. But if you can get something like this going your ba will start to be a lot more popular. Maybe some of your regular customers know a famous person and would be willing to invite them to help promote their latest book etc.

    Do Your RSA Course Online today!

    Be Creative In Looking For Opportunities:You should simply be creative in always being on the prowl for something that might make your bar a lot more fun. This could be anything from an Elvis impersonator to a novelty event (like specializing in St Patricks Day). Just give everything a go and see what works best.

    Grab Your RSA Course Certificate Today!

    Yes, you can really complete the RSA Course in a single day if you really want to, but you don’t have to do the few hours all at once, you can instead spread them out over a few days and relax a little bit, but either way, this will allow you to serve alcohol at any establishment around Australia, and thus participate in things that might help spice up your work!

     

  • RSA Course – Helping You Pick a Venue

    Sometimes it can be rather hard to pick a venue for your next party or gathering, and the RSA course itself will not be able to help you with this, but we might be able to give you some tips here. Venues can be appropriate based on a few things, and it is mainly based on what kind of a party you would like to throw.

    The Right Venue

     

    Will your party be rowdy or potentially get out of hand? I know that it can be hard to tell what kind of a party you will be having before it is being had. But you have to be able to think about it, because if your party is going to be strong or potentially get out of hand then you need to be able to put down a strong bond and find someone who will be able to cater to a party that may get a little rowdy. The kinds of venues that cater to parties like these often do it regularly so this means that they know how to handle a rowdy bunch. They will probably have a lot of security to keep people under control, and they will not have a lot of easily breakable things in the room. Or is your party likely to be laid back, relaxed?

    If you are not throwing a party and are instead having a  gathering of people who are unlikely to get rowdy and are just there for a pleasant time, then the venue needs to suit this. With a laid back party you will not have to put down as much if any bond.  The venue in this instance would likely be just a restaurant or club in a city. If you want your guests to be able to talk to each other consider a venue that has quiet music.

    At the Venue

     

    When you choose to have a party or a gathering at a venue, it is especially important that the servers are serving correctly, as the RSA Course will teach you. In instances where the party may get rowdy then it becomes especially important that the servers are able to keep everyone under control, and don’t serve too much to anyone. This is all taught in the RSA course online which they would have had to have completed before working at the venue.

    So go online today and get your RSA Course certificate so that you can work at these venues, and you could even learn something about keeping people under control at your party!
