You have that on good authority, do you? Well, let's see, what comes out of the tap at the pub is much the same as what comes out of the bottle, and what comes out of either is very thin compared to what came out of the tap at the pub 30 years ago, when it would hold a spoon erect and you could write legibly in the foam, so yeah, I have it on good authority. I have a friend who is British and made a point of checking what was being served in Ireland on his next trip over after we noted this discrepancy, and he tells me that what he got in an Irish pub in Ireland had the same watery consistency as what we get in the US. You're welcome to disagree, but anybody who has been drinking Guinness since the '60s and is being honest will tell you that Guinness today is much thinner than it once was. -- --John to email, dial "usenet" and validate (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |

If your pub is serving Guinness that doesn't have the foam you remember, it's because they'er using CO2 rather than the Nitrogen they're supposed to use for Guinness. Find a better pub, or verify that that's true. I bet you a pint that it is. I have a friend who is British and made a point of checking what was being served in Ireland on his next trip over after we noted this discrepancy, and he tells me that what he got in an Irish pub in Ireland had the same watery consistency as what we get in the US. The charging gas makes a huge difference in draft Guinness. You're welcome to disagree, but anybody who has been drinking Guinness since the '60s and is being honest will tell you that Guinness today is much thinner than it once was. There are dozens of varieties of Guinness throughout the world. I'm sure someone has a history of the specific gravities as distributed around the world. I can buy 3 distinctly different varieties at my corner grocery store. But do ask your pub why they're not using Nitrogen on the Guinness. They'd sell more if they were. Dave Hinz |

Ah, but then so do Janet Reno and Hilary Clinton :-) For some reason I've always liked Janet Reno. I'd dearly love to get enough liquor down her to find out what she really thinks about Slick Willy. I suspect that in her own mind she calls him something a lot worse than that. And the amount of self-control Hilary must have to not either fall down laughing every time she looks at him or just shoot him is just amazing. -- --John to email, dial "usenet" and validate (was jclarke at eye bee em dot net) |
