Prompted by a recent post from acclaimed bartender Jeffrey Morgenthaler, Adam, Joanna, and Zach discuss whether bartending has tipped too far in the direction of knowledge and information, and away from skill and hospitality. Are so-called "lab bars" creating mind-blowing drinks but not necessarily training bar staff in the kinds of skills that we've typically associated with the trade? Does that style of bar have a bright future, or is it a fad?
