Broithe Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Currently downing a Nigerian Guinness - lovely stuff, I think. Tesco on what the English think is the mainland stock it, now and then - well worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horsetan Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Currently downing a Nigerian Guinness - lovely stuff, I think. That would be Guinness Export. Same grade as the stuff they sell in Jamaica, where Guinness is known as the Jamaican First Aid kit Tesco on what the English think is the mainland stock it, now and then - well worth a try. The really unfortunate thing is that much of the standard Guinness sold / served on "the Mainland" tastes watery. Not like the full-bodied stuff I used to drink in Clare.

Mayner Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 mine did!![ATTACH=CONFIG]2865[/ATTACH] nice work on yours GC! Beautiful used to see those tractor and trailer units as a chissler going up and down to the quays to the Miranda Guinness docked at Sir John Rogerson Quay just beyond the Loop Line Bridge. The export Draft Bottled Guinness is good stuff, I have a bottle in my Emergency Pack under the desk at work in case of Earthquake, Tsunami or Taupo re-erupting.

Broithe Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 The Nigerian stuff has sorghum and wheat in it - rather a different taste, but quite drinkable. Rather too drinkable at 7.5%... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
