SkyMan25: Use this link. The Drunken Masters site is down, so the developer left us this nice list. Happy Bartending!

I can just imagine Frank saying,
"Um.. why are there 46 open bottles of beer under the counter?"
"I was trying to catch the caps."
"Why?"
"BECAUSE I'M A PROFESSIONAL."
Cracked a smile over this one. If there's ever a DM2, catching 46 bottle caps will unlock the "BECAUSE I'M A PROFESSIONAL" achievement. Or maybe something something Vault Hunter...

I absolutely love this game (though we'll see how I feel about it after I start my bartending job...) I have one kinda dumb question- what exactly does completing the checklists do?
Checklists unlock game features (like Versus Mode). I think completing them all was supposed to reveal an ending story for the character you picked. Maybe. I don't know if that made it in there. I know I wrote ending stories, but I haven't seen them in like 5+ years.
Yup, that is a list of all the drinks. Cocktails have three ingredients (according to Mad Men), and a good number of the drinks on that list only have one or two. But look at me, being all pedantic when you were genuinely being helpful. Thanks!

Is there any way to see a better list of what's actually in all the bottles.
I'm starting a home bar, and seeing as this was what first got me interested in bartending, I thought I'd use it as a checklist of sorts to see what I should get.

Concerning Chazx's comment: I find Yumi is also extremely helpful; how is having slow motion to rank up a buttload of points and complete certain moves not useful?

You're still replying to comments to inform and put people in their place? After four years? You, sir, are an inspiration to all.

Yes, customers who know how much one shot is are less realistic than bartenders who fire shotguns and revolvers indoors.
Autosave would make it better.
On the "shift menu" that you get after the tutorial and between bartending sessions (blue background, all those circular orange icons at the bottom, slow rap music), one of the circular orange icons is a floppy disk.
If you hover over that icon, it'll say "SAVE". Click to save, and then it'll say "SAVED".
It's easy to miss, and you are not the first person to ask about it. If DM2 ever happens, it'll autosave.

As a bartender, I must comment on the unrealism of patrons who think a perfect shot is exactly 2 oz and not at least 3.5 oz.
Really? Nothing to say about the unrealism of patrons actually ordering an Old-Fashioned at a dive bar?
Or the unrealism of bartenders firing shotguns and revolvers indoors?
Or the unrealism of bouncing bottles off of an invisible wall?
(As a former bartender, the purpose of this game was not realism, it was education. And you've gotta know the rules before you can break them.
A single is 1.5 - 2 oz, depending on the drink reference you used when you were training.
In nightclubs, dive bars, and college towns, kids are used to getting doubles, because bartenders are giving them more booze in exchange for better tips, or bar owners are using larger shot glasses to attract more binge-drinkers.
Doesn't change the fact that a single is 1.5 to 2 oz. Order a shot at a restaurant or clubhouse with a dress code, and you're getting two ounces of liquor.
If you want four ounces of booze, be a grown-up and order a double.

@Epic20422 that is Final Countdown on the level-up screen and the menu screen, or are you talking about the ingame music?
