Sorry to have to say Vanessa but

I really hate the stuff, its one of those beers you either love or hate.

I have been in Dublin with mates with them all having orgasms in getting the real thing, while i was a wusser drinking me larger.

Acquired taste is probably a good description lol

Ooohhhh Love it, used to have to put the shamrock on the top when I used to to bar work.

It's great in a Black Velvet:

Rich persons version - Guinness, Champagne, Blackcurrant

Student version - Guinness, sweet cider, Blackcurrant

mmmmmmm yum.

Well now, you see it's like this....

A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the rear that are killed. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole because only the fittest survive thus improving the general health and speed of the entire herd.

In much the same way the human brain only operates as quickly as the slowest of it's brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells, as we all know, and naturally the alcohol attacks the slowest/weakest cells first....

So it is as plain as the nose on your face that regular consumption of Guinness will eliminate the weaker, slower brain cells thus leaving the remaining cells the best in the brain.

The end result, of course, is a faster more efficient brain.

If you doubt this at all, tell me, isn't it true that we always feel a bit smarter after a few pints?

An American walks into an Irish pub and says, "I'll give anyone $100 if they can drink 10 Guinness's in 10 minutes." Most people just ignore the absurd bet and go back to their conversations. One guy even leaves the bar. A little while later that guy comes back and asks the American, "Is that bet still on?" "Sure." So the bartender lines 10 Guinness's up on the bar the Irishman drinks them all in less than 10 minutes. As the American hands over the money he asks, "Where did you go when you just left?" The Irishman answers, "I went next door to the other pub to see if I could do it."

Did you know that many doctors recommend half a pint of Guiness for pregnant women? It is high in iron content and contains loads of vitamins as well.

I drank it a few weeks ago for the first time (at the Irish Village ofcourse ), but me thinks its very bitter

I like the Irish whiskey better
