Nik_B 3,790 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Im like a born again teenager at the moment with all this beer lark but i must say canned stuff just doesnt do it for me i dont know if it works different for lager but the bitters and ales i drink are just not the same out of a can or bottle. By the way does it make you a bit of a sissy if you have a drop of blackcurrant at the top of a pint of Guinness ? Yes, now man-up ye big girls blouse... Reading that i nearly spilled me Babysham..!! No Cinzano Bianco tonight? That's what we used to get smashed on when we were younger lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

neil cooney 10,415 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Up until a few years ago before Ireland started get all f****n' PC you used to see only pregnant women drinking a glass (not a pint, we're not animals) of Guinness with some blackcurrant in it. Doctors often prescribed it because Guinness is high in iron. But then again, here in Ireland in those days we didn't have gays and that's probably who drinks it nowadays. I can't speak for Ireland, but over here, Guiness use to be given to the frail, elderly. I've seen patients in the old geriatric hospitals encouraged to have a glass of an evening, but it was never actually prescribed. It's not especially high in iron, but it does contain a !ot of calories in a small amount - handy, if you're caring for a frail old fella who's not eating very well. Cant stand the stuff, personally............. I'd well believe it. I wasn't messing when I said that Doctors used to tell pregnant women to drink a glass a day.

downsouth 6,860 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 By the way does it make you a bit of a sissy if you have a drop of blackcurrant at the top of a pint of Guinness ? Very, People get blackcurrant in it to take away the tang from the guiness i dont mind a pint of the black stuff but i prefer beamish its much nicer.if im having a drink in the house its a cold bottle of bud. Decent Guiness shouldn't have a tang.Havnt had a pint of Beamish for years.Lovely stuff. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

waltjnr 6,077 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 I don't mind drinking lager in summer, generally becks or grosch but once the season turns I'm on to ale. At the moment it's doom bar (piss weak) and old speckled hen or hobgoblin Im a seasonal drinker,ales,port ,red wine through the winter months ,switch to lagers ,occasional cider once its sunny ! Guiness 12 months of the year ,its very adaptable! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
