Split the G
The Guinness ritual, turned into a game the whole bar plays.
Built for The Leinster in Edgewater, Miami, and live at splittheg.bar
The problem
Every Guinness drinker knows the ritual of trying to split the G on the first sip. The Leinster wanted to turn that bit of pub fun into a reason to order another pint and come back next week.
What we built
A web app that scores the split from a photo. The AI finds the line in the glass, grades it from A to F and puts the result on a leaderboard. Staff can run live competitions that players join by scanning a QR code, with a big-screen view on the bar TV showing the rounds and the standings.
How it works in the room
A guest takes a sip, snaps a photo and sees their grade before the glass is back on the bar. On competition night the TV shows the leaderboard, and everyone at the bar starts watching each other's pints.
What it changes
A drink becomes something people talk about and share. Leaderboards and competitions give regulars a reason to return, and the bar gets a signature night that belongs to it.
