Having 2+ years of bartending experience before attending this school on my new employers request I thought it would be a waste of time, however, I learned a variety of techniques not only on drinks but how to carry myself better. I was also surprised on how much insight on the industry that was offered that I would have never known without this school. I can say from experience that most bartenders only know the drinks or “rules” that they have experienced in their establishment and do not have a concept beyond that if they did not attend a school. I am now a more marketable asset in for employers since I obtain experience and the education. A worthy investment.
I went into the class thinking I knew a little something about bartending already. After the class, I discover just how wrong I was. Rex and Ryan are both EXCELLENT teachers, super well-informed and experienced. Rex especially was expert at drawing upon his extensive and superlative experience in showing how to learn and conduct oneself as a bartender, while training us in cues to remember drink ingredients and recipes. That experience was well worth the price by itself, but the college also assists with recruitment and placement. A recent engagement that Rex sent me out on paid for the course tuition. Fantastic!! If you are looking to obtain instruction and knowledge, as well as contacts and placement assistance, the DB&CC IS THE PLACE TO GO!! I'm VERY pleased with my investment!!
Micky is an amazing flair bar tender, if you are looking to step it up, have him show you the ropes. People were flipping bottles by the end of class!
This was a fun and extremely informative couple of weeks. There is NO WAY I could have learned this on my own. The practice for the Colorado Department of Higher Education exam, both written and practical, which is administered at the end, was invaluable. There is a lot to learn. The classes are never boring and funny too.
I could not recommended a better teacher in the industry. Let me put this in a way for parents and students deciding between the bar tending schools. Micky was so devoted to us, that he was willing to let me switch from the 1 week program to the 2 week program no charge just so I would have more time to study if needed or so I could watch him make the drinks again and really get the information down. I ended up passing the 1 week long class with a 92% and I am terrible with tests, have been since I was a kid. I am a hands on learner, not a book reading learner.
I thought bartending was a trying expertise and learning the skill would be even more difficult. Although, learning all the drinks was overwhelming we did get a lot of time behind the bar to practice. Now having the knowledge on how to carry yourself as a bartender, working under pressure, mixing skills under controlled circumstances and speed gave me a confidence to enter the industry that I wouldn’t been able to get anywhere else. You cant go wrong with this school
I am now looking forward to a new career, probably something I should have done years ago. Many thanks to Micky for being a patient and wonderful teacher.
As long as you show up on time, put in your effort, Micky will work with you. Micky wants you to succeed and to have fun while learning the process. Bar tending is easy as long as you have charisma, a knack for the service industry and you are willing to challenge your self to learn drink recipes over time. It may seem daunting at first to see all the drink recipes. After Micky goes over the basics, it gets really easy to figure out what goes in a drink by its name. As long as you study nightly after class or review a few times, you should have no trouble picking this up. I teamed up with everyone in the class, we would show up 30 mins early each day and practice with each other. Only one person in the class did not join us and that one person also did not study period, this individual did not make it in the end. What was truly amazing was this same individual made class difficult. Micky impressed me by staying calm, continued to work one on one with this individual to try and help them pass the class. While doing this Micky still gave each of us personal time to work with him one on one and coached us on our techniques.
The best bar tending school in Colorado. Micky is an amazing instructor. He works with everyone! The class is fun and laid back. Micky will teach you all you need to know and more. Micky keeps your attention by being funny and extremely informative. Very entertaining to watch this pro flair bar tend while teaching you how to make drinks like a mad man.
