The Board
Beer is best shared among friends in person. But for those occasions when meeting is impossible, some bars allow patrons to buy future rounds for their friends. Pay the bartender in advance and he or she will write the recipients’ names on a chalkboard or dry-erase board behind the bar. The beneficiaries can claim their drinks on their next visit, and maybe put their friends’ names on the board, too. –Jon Page
