Do you like Guiness?

[shifting gears]

A bad pint on the other hand can be utterly vile and on a couple of occasions has put me off the black stuff for a year or so.

I used to drink guinness when I was younger but haven't had it for years now. I hardly touch beer these days anyway.

milk stouts

I've often wondered if milk stout is actually made with milk.

I was served a Guinness in a pub in Preston that had no head at all - just black all the way up to the top.

I don't like Guinness and I don't like having to wait fucking ages to get served at the bar because someone has just ordered four pints of the stuff.

This marketing tosh about it having to be poured slowly is total bullshit - it makes no difference whatsoever. And fuck sticking a stupid shamrock on the head like it's some sort of children's drink. Jeez.

‘The Guinness two-part pour is just a marketing ploy’

Sound Off: It doesn’t matter how you put stout into a glass, the result is the same

The last time someone poured me one in one pour the head was a third of a glass, so I think if all the gas is correct and stuff there is something in it

No, it's marketing bollocks.

“Every Guinness is supposed to be poured into a specially crafted tulip glass. But that glass is designed to manipulate the bubbles in the beer to turn the pour into a performance, making you wait longer than you need to,” he explains.

“The pour is marketed by Guinness as a six-step process including a special pint glass, a correct angle of pouring, and even a midway waiting period in which the beer separates before the pint is topped off. It has become a time-honored ritual in pubs around the world. A bulk of that time is the settling. But this time period is as much about marketing as it is the physics. You may be waiting longer than you would for another beer, but that's by design.”

This gives a whole new meaning to the company’s iconic marketing tagline, "Good things come to those who wait."

When it comes to pouring the perfect pint of plain, it looks like we have all been doing it wrong. Here's your complete guide to a good ole Guinness.

The 0.0 Guinness is the best alcohol free beer there is imho. I’ve always loved the original, so having a near perfect version available to me since going sober is fantastic.

Two old Guinness videos. The first has a two step method , the second a just poor slowly in one .( cant fix the second one as I'm off out)

I agree, I was standing at the bar for ages the other night before I could order my Mojito

Fucking Mojito drinkers. There’s people waiting for espresso martinis here!

I think it's only fair those those who want to drink a beverage that comes with a pointless built in waiting time should have to stand in a separate line while beer drinkers can enjoy their speedily dispensed amber nectar.

As a whisky drinker I couldn’t agree more.

 

[sleaterkinney]

Unfortunately a lot of the Guinness you get in pubs is that chilled rubbish designed to be poured in one.

London Black is a really nice pint.

 

[friedaweed]

I just think I do not like stout.

Try this. Home bargains £1.69.

Like a Reeses chocolate bar dancing on your tongue.

 

[brogdale]

Nope .

But is made with lactose as one of the sugar ingredients.

 

[friedaweed]

But does anyone other than the OP enhance their Guinness experience with blackcurrant?

Na. I've had the shot of port on occasions but the blackcurrant thing should be banishment territory.

And the beer drinkers who want a taster to prattle on about for 10 minutes whilst they make their fucking mind up, they should have their own queue too, allowing us solid lager louts to get in there with no odd facial hair, order a pint of cold, tasteless fizz and get on with the serious business of getting tanked up.

I've had it. Nothing to write home about. If you want a coffee stout Aldi do one. Not sure if you could get it out there but it's nice for a nicker and a half a bottle

Here's a tip, order two pints next time you're at the bar and you'll not be so inconvenienced.

Yeah, my flaming sambucca might go out while I'm waiting...

Love Guinness hate airports. Its like I've walked into the biggest stag night in the world. Surely these people won't be able to fly :

I'm in terminal 3 in Manchester and it's like the Hacienda
