## What is a vertical aperitivo board?

An aperitivo board is a screen carrying the evening drink and snack offer and its hours. On a TV it loops the bar's name, the drinks list, the pairing at one price, and when it runs, so the offer is on the wall for the two hours it applies.

A bar running aperitivo runs this on a TV stood on its end: the venue, the priced list, one offer and the hours.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why stand a TV on its end for a bar running aperitivo?

Because the wall usually decides. A bar running aperitivo tends to sit against a pillar, a narrow strip beside a doorway or a window that is taller than it is wide, and a landscape panel there either overhangs or shrinks to fit. A portrait board reads as one column top to bottom, which suits a list. What it is not is a rotated landscape design: turning a wide layout on its side re-wraps every line, so the board is authored in the shape the screen is mounted in.

### How do I mount a screen in portrait safely?

Three checks before drilling. The bracket has to allow rotation, which most VESA plates do but some fixed ones do not. The panel itself has to be rated for portrait: many consumer TVs are not, because heat rises differently through a rotated panel and the warranty often says so in a line people skip. And the cables have to leave the set without a tight bend at the new bottom edge. A commercial signage panel is usually rated for both orientations, which is one of the real things the premium buys.

### What should an aperitivo board say?

The hours, the price and what arrives with the drink. Aperitivo is a promise about what lands on the table, so a board that prices the drink but not the food leaves the interesting half unsaid. Three words for the board of snacks is enough: salumi, olives, grissini. The hours belong in the same size type as the price, because the offer is the pair of them.

### Should drinks be listed with prices during a set offer?

Yes, on the slide before it. People choosing an aperitivo want to know what a negroni costs if they do not take the offer, and a board that hides the ordinary prices during a promotion reads as a trick. Two slides, one loop, both true.
