Basta! When too much is too much.

by Chris Sherman (B-21) under Miscellaneous

NO KEGS.  Unless your guests are under 30 and number more than 60, you and your pals will sadly realize you can no longer finish a keg (remember running out to get a second or a third?).  Without your own kegerator at home you won’t finish it the next day no matter how badly the Bucs do.  If you’ve got to have draft fun, get the cool new mini kegs from Heineken. (which B-21 carries in their store)

NO OPEN BARS.  Hire a bartender or designate a non-drinker to mix cocktails.  Leaving a wide range of open bottles of 80 proof booze to pour into a Coke-machine selection of soft drinks is asking for trouble.

Besides, to provide a range of cocktails for even a small party requires at least a half dozen bottles, one rum, one bourbon, one scotch, one tequila, one vodka and one gin.  Better to pick a limited a number of cocktails, say dirty martinis,  Manhattans or mango daiquiris. Buy 1.75 liter bottles of quality liquor, and have someone make them with a steady – and measured hand.  BTW, real cocktail drinkers do use jiggers.
