#MNCleanPint

Sick of being served beers with no head? Missing that delicate lace down the side of the glass as you drink? Well now you can do something about it.

A Twitter movement is underway that seeks to recognize bars who treat their beer right by pouring it into “beer-clean” glassware. A beer-clean glass is one that is residue free; no soap scum, no grease, no bright pink lip prints. It’s a glass that will provide for good foam and nice lacing. It’s the glass that your beer deserves. Heck, you’re paying enough for it; they ought to at least put it in a clean glass.

Whenever you find yourself enjoying a nice beer in a properly prepared glass, just tweet your location and a picture of that perfectly-laced empty using #MNCleanPint. Let others know which Twin Cities bars are doing right by their beer. By doing so you also enter yourself to win some great prizes.

Here’s more from the #MNCleanPint website:
