Thread Name: All you need to know about Guinness
Subject: RE: All you need to know about Guinness
I drank about 5 million pints of Guinness in Ireland before emigrating and never once got a shamrock on the top. I never drank in tourist bars, mind. To those who wrote that the best pint was in Dublin i have to say, WRONG! There are loads of good bars in Dublin, but there are plenty of awfull commercialised kips as well. The most reliable (and cheapest) pints are to be found in the country, apart from the tourist traps of course. The pint isn't too bad here in Copenhagen these days, at least in the Irish pubs. Have you all tried the Dublin brewed can of draught Guinness, the one with the ping pong ball in it? Not a bad pint at all 'cept its not a pint, just 440ml.
