Shame it tastes like cardboard.
When I had back pain such as muscle soreness. I drank a pint of Guinness and BAM! Muscle soreness went away in an hour. I'd stick with me Guinness as my medicine and a good time!!
The more I drink the better I feel & they waisted money to find this out.
Something we can all agree on: Bartender, a Guinness for everyone!
I've been saying it!! Can't drink those blonde waters, need my stout!
:)))) cheers Ireland..

LiamKeyes tells us that “Guinness supply every hospital in Dublin with "snipes" (small bottles" of Guinness) daily... They also supply the Maternity Hospital's, The National Maternity Hospital, The Coombe Hospital, The Rotunda Hospital etc. with the same gift (of Guinness)”. THAT EXPLAINS THE REAL REASONS FOR WHY THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE ON TROLLEYS IN THE A&E WAITING ROOMS OF IRISH HOSPITALS!!
There is an old Tradition in Dublin, Guinness' supply every hospital in Dublin with "snipes"(small bottles" of Guinness)daily. It is said to whet the appetite to which a lot of the patients concur. They also supply the Maternity Hospital's, The National Maternity Hospital, The Coombe, The Rotunda etc. with the same gift. Doctor Kaknes( a Greek Doctor) who delivered two of my kids) when he done his internship in the Rotunda. He said that the Guinness contained iron and he reccomended it all his patients. The Guinness' also host huge Christmas Parties for the poor people in Dublin. It is said that "The Guinness' are very kind to the people of Dublin but as Brendan Behan remarked "The People of Dublin are very good to the Guinness'.
Takes me back to my youth and a little Guinness doggerel: Daisy,Daisy, give me your answer, do/ I'm half crazy and give me my Guinness too/for lunch is'nt lunch without it/ so huury up about it/ for it 's nice to drink and it 's nice to think/ AGUINNESS IS GOOD FOR YOU!!! Amen, Brothers and Sisters.
Sure didn't we all know this all along- just another bit of proof of the superior intelligence and physical stature of the Irish :)
Of course,this brand of stout only, and along with a fat cigar, even healthier.
sirpeter, How do I get in touch with you?
The Scientist is correct! My eight siblings and I have a history of high cholesterol. When I used to drink that St. Louis Swill; Budweiser..My counts would hover at 600. Years ago,I started having the pints of the Dark drawn and my last report is 184. I think I'll have another.
Some people worry to much, and some people drink Guinness to much...And both will meet their maker to soon because of it.....But Guinness drinkers will arrive much happier ;)
