Guinness
 

Someone bought me a pint of Guinness for Christmas ( in a presentation box with a pint glass ).
I've just drunk it .... BLEURGH ... how the hell does anyone drink that stuff ... AWFUL ...

Spokey

I think it's nice. Kind of tastes like wood in a glass, in a nice way. But it has to be really really cold.

you must be joking!!!! any unwanted guiness, please donate to the Old Git, will find a warm dark place to deposit it without any trouble.:smt119

My dad swears buy it! I dont mind it, but i prefer a nice beer

Re: Guinness
 

Its lovely, smooth, creamy, lots of flavour, nice burnt aftertaste, takes a few pints before you acquire the taste though, and it needs to be drunk in a pub where they keep it properly and not out of cans.

I hate it too, reminds me of ashtrays.

Re: Guinness
 

What do you normally drink and how come you have gone through life without tasting Guinness? ;)

Re: Guinness
 

To be honest I don't really drink these days - I mostly have some Bud in the fridge, and a bottle of Southern Comfort in the cupboard - but it gives me a bad head if I drink more than a couple of bottles of bud, so I tend to stick to Earl Gray or orange juice :mrgreen:

Guinness tastes like liquid smoke - you can have it ..

Now, Theakestons old peculiar ..... Mmmmm - that makes me fall over a lot

Re: Guinness
 

exactly how I described it, but it certainly isn't nice IMO, yuck.

Re: Guinness
 

Try the proper stuff, in a place that sells lots of it- much nicer stuff that way.

Bottled/ Canned Guinness is crap, don't bother :p
