How to politely tell the bartender....
.... that she's watering your drinks down and you kindly request that she discontinue doing so?
I swear. I'm out drinking with my buddy the other night and we're asking for tequila shots in between our beers and the beer was packing more of a punch. There's NO way those shot glasses contained only tequila. We even tried switching brands and it was still the same crap. I decided not to tell her "hey fatty, stop watering down my [censored]!" for fear of her using the solid black color of my next "Perfect Pint" of Guinness as camouflauge for a big glob of spit. What's my play?

Don't they pour the shot in front of you? [/ QUOTE ] When I took a bartending class they told us that the law mandated pouring all drinks up on the bar in front of the customer.

Re: How to politely tell the bartender....
I've seen bartenders chill tequila first before pouring the shots, which means putting it in a shaker with ice. Perhaps that's what made the shots taste watered down. If that was the case, I'd ask the barkeep not to chill the tequila first...

Agreed. I can't think of a good way to tell a bartender that. [/ QUOTE ] I've never had a problem with the bar before. It was just this particular bartender. Place was pretty full and we had crappy seats so no other bartenders ever walked by. There's gotta be a polite way to say this... I mean, if she ISN'T watering the drinks down, then they shouldn't taste that way. If she IS doing it, then she knows she screwed up and got caught.

[/ QUOTE ] I assumed you meant that the place was watering down the tequila in the bottle. I've been to some bad bars before but I can't imagine someone actually watering down a shot when they pour it.
