I'd argue there's nothing cooler than having the froth overflow around you, while you look on unperturbed. Steve McQueen was no doubt a straight-pourer.
Rinse glass, Tilted, 45’ angle, dont touch tap or bottle, have 1/4” of foam on top - my directions from the craft brewery i am currently furloughed from...only worked 6 weeks after they first opened, really looking forward to going back! I miss pouring beers!
My position also. I have friends who insist on it for Coke, to the point where all conversation must stop while they carefully trickle it down the side of their glass.
What I do is I make sure I get maximum head. But not tilting and then let the head settle down. Because we don’t get fresh beer and everything is bottled and shipped it’s better to let the head out so that the beer can breathe ( could be utter nonsense ) but that is my logic

I’ve never looked cooler than when I tilt my glass for a perfect pour

I tilt! I have a beer tap installed at home and tilt whilst pouring from that or the bottle.
Well, obviously the biggest thing to note here IS YOU HAVE YOUR OWN BEER TAP
Just cheap American beer right now...

And the world misses having beers poured for them. You'll be back at it before long, with gusto.
Thanks for that expert perspective!
I don’t tilt my glass or pour slowly zero patience for that nonsense

Seriously people need to lighten up.

See, when people start talking about beers breathing, I glaze over only to wake up with the realisation I haven't got the beer yet.
