It was funny Title: Guinness Post by: Onion_Jimbo on Friday, September 2, 2005, 17:03:17 Guiness in dublin is nice. It tastes completely different. I've no idea why though.
I rarely drink it because its boring Title: Guinness Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, September 2, 2005, 17:03:20 I've been to the Guiness museum in Dublin. I bought a pair of novelty Guiness slippers!
How we laughed! Title: Guinness Post by: Ralphy on Friday, September 2, 2005, 17:04:42 Quote from: "Onion_Jimbo" Guiness in dublin is nice. It tastes completely different. I've no idea why though.

Title: Guinness Post by: Ralphy on Friday, September 2, 2005, 17:08:09 This is going down well :guinness:

People do always say it and I thought they were talking a load of balls. I mean, why would they produce a drink that is not that nice unless you drink it where its made?
but it does, it tastes a lot better and goes down easy. makes your poo black Title: Guinness Post by: Spud on Friday, September 2, 2005, 17:19:59 Ive never tried Guiness. 8)

Most, if not all Guinness sold in mainland UK is brewed in London (I think), probably using water from the thames :chunder: The Guinness in the USA is better than UK, as its imported from Ireland. Well it is in my 'local' anyway :beers: Title: Guinness Post by: Whits on Friday, September 2, 2005, 18:01:35 Quote from: "Ralphy" Quote from: "Reg Smeeton" Quote from: "Ralphy" Quote from: "Onion_Jimbo" Guiness in dublin is nice.

Apparently it closed in June. Title: Guinness Post by: flammableBen on Friday, September 2, 2005, 18:34:28 I like guiness for breakfast
