I have difficulty finding Guinness Extra Stout around here. It’s always sold out.
1: Prepare a very clean, tulip–shaped glass.
2: Chill your Guinness to 42.8°F (6°C).
3: Hold the glass at a 45–degree angle and place the tap nozzle close to, but not touching, the glass. Aim for the top of the gold harp on a Guinness glass.
4: Fill the glass until the beer just reaches the top of the glass.
5: Set the glass down upright and wait for one to 2.5 minutes.
6: Hold the glass upright and slowly top the pint up with more beer until the foam bulges slightly over the rim.
1. Aim directly for the toilet.
Guinness delenda est. Not a fan ever since they boycotted the NYC St. Patrick’s Day parade over the homosexuals not being permitted to march under their own banner, back in 2014.
A true pint glass would have a mark toward the top of the glass that legally Great Britain pubs have to make sure the alcoholic beverage is not below that line, in other words you can’t sell a glass of alcohol with a big creamy head, the alcohol has to be up to that line, and the head above the line. Maybe someone can post a picture of a pint glass with the line.
I was in Galway years ago with friends who were Irish & we went to a tourist pub because they were looking for American women. I remember one of them ordering the first pint and the bar tender served him the pint with an inch of foam. Pushed it back to the bartender and said he paid for a full pint. After he knew he was dealing with Irish, he’s serve it traditionally to us and the tourists were still getting their inch of foam.
Ah Guinness. The “Emperor’s New Clothes” of Beer.
I’ve watched the masters do it while sitting in Dublin Pubs. You drink Guiness the first day then you realize everyone is drinking Murphy’s so you switch. Its better.
Step 1 - Open a bottle of Guinness.
Step 2 - Pour the Guinness into the toilet.
Step 3 - Enjoy.
I do not like nitrogen in my beer.
