There's nothing like the Original (Score 1)

True, I live close to St. James Gate in Dublin, and the smell alone tastes good. I live in Germany now though, and it's virtually undrinkable. The stuff they get here is made in south of Paris, it's stronger (6% as opposed to 4.3%), but it tastes like bad Murphys. If you're ever in Italy, don't drink it either, it's from London, it's the same 4.3%, but it *does* taste like asphalt. I'm not certain where your Guiness comes from (assuming you're Amercian is fairly safe ;-) )but it's highly unlikely it comes from Dublin or Belfast, the only two acceptable kinds of The Black Stuff. It simply doesn't travel well, so they brew it closer to the market. So you're stuck with asphaly 'till you make it to my local (The Gravediggers in Glasnevin, Dublin. Officially the 2nd best pint in Ireland)
