Climate: Beer troubles looming

[Mike]

There is the other sin of Guiness and Black (Blackcurrent)

Its actually quite nice, apparently, not that Ive drank it, honest

[hellcat]

I know a few people who drink their Guinness with Blackcurrent......Another outrage

I think those people deserve to be taken outside and beaten severely aroung the head and shoulders until they promise never never never to do it again.

Having tasted it myself once it's not bad actually

Aye it is quite nice occasionally

I first drank a proper pint of Guiness in Dublin whilst working there, I really enjoyed it. I was lucky enough to stay at the Ballymac which is a lovely place.

Where was the Ballymac...don't think I know it. Where in Dublin did you work.

You have to drink Guinness in Ireland and then abroad to appreciate the difference.

The best place to drink guinness in dublin is Bowes which is a pub in Fleet Street. They are renown for their Guinness and closely followed by The Brazen Head, just of Merchants Quay. This is the oldest pub in Dublin.
Great for Irish Music and loads of tourist go there

I got it wrong, I stayed at the Ballymascan when I was working in Dundalk

I also worked in our office in BlackRock, Dublin

OK Mike....far to much of the Guinness with the Blackcurrant....far far too much.
Know Blackrock, south side dublin and would be very posh area very rugby orientated. They drink Heno there....Have a guess what that is.....

I wouldnt dare drink Guiness and black in Ireland

I normally drink Cider or Guiness whilst over there

Yes the Blackrock office is next to a rugby ground and it is a well to do area!

Heno

[hellcat]

Barman two pints of Heno in a very posh accent.
Heiniken beer....

What cider did you drink in Ireland, Bulmers/Magners...that's the only one I would touch. Scrumpy Jack or Stonehouse...god they would cut the stomach out of you....
I often had a few pints of Snake Bit to finish off a nights drinking....Jesus that's guaranteed to make you ring God on that big white telephone after you downed about four of them and a Chicken Curry and Fried Rice on top of it.

I love cider and Ive drank it since I was a youngster. I do get stick now and then as it is seen as a kids drink

I didnt even know that it was available in Dublin intil I saw the locals drinking it. From then on I was on bottles of Bulmers

I dont do snake bite anymore as it sends me loopy and makes my kidneys hurt

[hellcat]

Bulmers, Pint Glass, Ice, Beer Garden, Sun, Saturday, no work the next day....mmmmmmmmmmm....that's the life.
