The Perfect Pint — Full Training Transcript with Guinness Ambassador Michael Reardon

A complete, unfiltered transcript from a Guinness line-to-glass training session at Boland’s, covering pour mechanics, gas, lines, and the philosophy behind the perfect pint.

Guinness Ambassador Michael Reardon at Boland’s

This is a complete, sequential transcript from a live Guinness training session led by Ambassador Michael Reardon I attended on February 25, 2026.

The session moves from fundamentals of the two-part pour to the deeper mechanics of gas, pressure, glassware, and system integrity. What follows is not interpretation or summary. It is the instruction as delivered — direct, practical, and unfiltered.

Read it the same way a pint is poured: slowly, with attention. The details matter.

If the pint has ever felt too heavy, you’re not alone.
There’s strength in asking for help, and there’s no story that disqualifies you from healing.
