Videos from the Stella Artois Draught Masters Ph 2017 Competition


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Congratulations to the top 3 bartenders who rose to the top (L-R) Jason Laurio of Pablo's Bistro, Shiela Roa Poderanan of Draft Gastropub Ortigas and Michael Angelo Mallari of Draft Gastropub Greenbelt. They are to compete at the Asian Draught Masters in Bangkok, Thailand this coming July.

16 bartenders (and servers), including two female, from different outlets and establishments competed for the top 3 spots at Stella Artois Draught Masters Philippines 2017 competition. But even before the top three were selected, a top seven was first chosen to do another show for the judges, and included a question and answer portion (similar to how beauty pageants work) but is called a "passion" test to determine how passionate and knowledgeable the contestants are.

I was able to interview the two previous Draught Masters for the Philippines including the winner from the International competition. Unfortunately, the third one has moved on to different field. 

Among the four contestants that I was able to interview before the event started, one of them was among the top three, and that is Shiela Roa Poderanan, one of the two ladies who admitted that she was not really a bartender, but is grateful to her boss for trusting her to compete at the said competition.

Likewise, I was also able to interview all the winners after the event, and at the same time give my congratulations for a job well done.

Awarding was led by Mr. Joris Janssen - Marketing Director, AB Inbev Asia and Mr. Raj Sadhwani - President/CEO of Booze Online Inc. Chester Cabrera of Booze Online Inc., was also there as one of the judges and also gave the last messages before the event finally ended.

French-Filipina singer Vanessa Monot sang jazz and blues to entertain the crowd, while Burleque Ph heat up the venue with their sizzling performances.
