how nice does it look tho?! Shame its an AFF otherwise I'd actually have a crack at it. Not a massive fan of the black stuff, always think it looks so nice but once I try it I realise I've been duped yet again |

I like Beamish. Had something similar in a pub recently, it was on cask and tasted delicious but I cant remember the name (went on to a wine tasting afterwards and destroyed a few million brain cells). |

Me, I hate it (and Marmite). I am told by many that it is completely different in Ireland and MUCH better. |

Yeah, can't believe there is THAT much of a difference over there/. Unless they add a spoon full of sugar to it, it aint gonna taste any better IMO Often wonder what it'd be like with a shot of Baileys thrown in... Have tried it will Tia Maria shot which sweetens it up but still aint quite right ...and Guiness and Black is just medicinal !  [edit] and Ba... Marmite rocks ! |

Rumour has it that in and around Dublin it is not pasteurised. Maybe it is a psychological thing but it does seem to taste better whenever I've been over there. |

Oy oy oy ... 'Bout 15 yers ago, the Liffey was as mmmurkie as a pond in a quarry pit. Nah ! Take a trip down ta Killarney, and that there black stuff is as sweet as the very peat unda ya feet. Now the sensible bit: But, since me thinks the brewery in Dublin is now closed, that's probably all bullshit......now. Yeah, I'll take a drop of black with the cream topping, once - inna - while. |

Hands up who hasn’t tasted a wine on holiday (caught up in the romance of your surroundings) and loved it, only to bring a bottle or two home, open it and think, eh, that's not how I remember it...... Re Guinness, if there are subtle differences to the taste, it may have something to do with the water used, Diageo now produce this in a number of sites around Europe, they can’t all be using the same well. |

Talking of romance, I had a girly-friend once who liked to drink a 50/50 mix of draught Guinness & scrumpy. |

On the subject of ... 10 stories that could be April Fools... but aren't. I particularly like this one...  Quote: Tucking into a fried breakfast of sausages, eggs, bacon, beans, mushrooms, black pudding and tomatoes is a healthier way to start the day than a bowl of cereal, according to a study in the International Journal of Obesity.
