Burlesque PH Performs at Stella Artois Draught Masters PH 2017 Competition


Wazzup Pilipinas!

According to theri Facebook page, "Burlesque PH is the Philippines' premiere brand for burlesque performances, education, and merchandise dedicated to building awareness and development of the art of tease. They are a group of sophisticated and whimsical individuals who see and interpret beauty through theatrical and empowering striptease."

Indeed, it was a tease-full night as they performed hot and sizzling numbers to entertain the audience who thought they were only to witness bartenders show off their skills in the art of serving the Belgian beer we all know as Stella Artois.

Burlesque Madame Colette La Coquette opened up the first performance with her eloquent words to welcome the audience and give out some reminders for moments when the performers would seem to give away their clothing. 

Yup! Their clothing will be one-by-one taken off to seemingly heat up the event as if the competition among bartenders were not hot enough as they battle it out for the ultimate chance to be sent to Bangkok, Thailand for the international competition.

I could swear that the audience were all in attention to the performance of the lovely ladies up to the second performance involving a vertical pole where both acrobatics and sensuality emerged as the most prominent acts.

I am most impressed with the performance of Manila's Bad Girl Joyen Santos as she stripped away her clothes revealing an almost naked top with her nipples covered only with little glittery somethings. While her companion who performed on the vertical pole had everyone at awe with her sensually acrobatic prowess.

Below are the two performances done during the Stella Artois Draught Masters PH 2017 Competition:

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.

9 Steps to Belgian Beer Bliss by Stella Artois


Wazzup Pilipinas!
 
Every sip of an ice-cold Belgian beer is an experience delivered from many years of brewing expertise. And for Stella Artois, each drop of beer must be poured with precision and perfection to offer an exquisite taste connoisseurs deserve. This is done through the brand’s nine-step pouring ritual that has stood the test of time.  

Born from the passion for delivering a full-bodied, authentic flavor of Belgian beer, the nine-step pouring ritual follows strict standards in beer pouring. To ensure that this ritual is preserved and will endure through time, Stella Artois hosted its 2nd Draught Masters Philippines Competition last June 22, 2017 at Fairmont Hotel, Makati City. Here, bartenders from various restaurants, bars, and hotels showcased their expertise in the nine-step pouring ritual. The top three performers will represent the country as finalists in the regional finals in Bangkok, Thailand.

“Our nine-step ritual is a dance between the Chalice and the Draught Master. It is observed properly to serve a pleasantly bitter beer flavor we’ve always loved,” says Chester Cabrera, Head of Marketing, Booze Online, Inc. “With the second installment of Draught Masters Philippines, Stella Artois would like to share the brand’s over 600 years of brewing expertise by keeping our time-honored, nine-step pouring ritual alive.”
