Guinness
After being forced to drink this for the first time tonight due to pub golf I have come to the conclusion that it is vilest drink known to man. Even the barium meals I have been forced to drink tasted better than this.

Re: Guinness
It's shit.
There's a reason the Irish like it; they have no ****ing standards.

Re: Guinness
I hate beer, but I don't mind Guiness. I find the extra bitterness hides the otherwise beer-like taste.

Guiness is the classic 'meal in a glass'
I only drink it when it's £1 a pint down the SU

Re: Guinness
Hmm the joys of the SU, how i miss those days of drinking all day on £20 and lying comatosed on your bed by 4pm.... (That might have been to do with being a lightweight as much as consuming vast quantities)

Re: Guinness
I hate the way that a lot of people drink Guinness and go "mmm" even though they hate it, because they think it's a "cool manly drink".
Which it is, I guess. It still tastes like shit though (in my opinion).

Re: Guinness
I don`t drink Guiness myself, but it`s supposed to be good (in small amounts) for pregnant women; all that extra iron and that.

Surely they'd drink vodka straight up or something if they were concerned about appearing manly?

Brains is ok for about the first third of the point, but I find that it settles too much, too quickly, and tastes nowhere near as good.
A nice smooth bitter though, not bad if you drink it quickly and don't let it settle.

Re: Guinness
Guinness is my prefered pint (although i did try it with blackcurrent once which made it horrid++).
Next is Worthington's.
After that i'll go for the odd bitter.
I'm fond of straight whisky or vodka on the odd occasion.
As far as bottles go i'll go for the orginal budweiser budvar, and newcastle brown (i think).

Agreed
Plus, Drinking one guiness is not enough, its an Aquired Taste (ie you have to drink it regularly to enjoy it, much like coffee).
PS - Guiness and a shot of Tia Maria works pretty well together.

Re: Guinness
Guiness is an 'acquired taste' if you've downed enough alcohol to completely annihilate your mouth, liver, and genitals.
