It's GUINNESS time
 
As many Pixies, I am a Guinness fan and have been on the Canadian mailing list for a loooong time. I RSVP'ed to an invitation to a Guinness party on the 14th.

OK . . . it's a press party but I'm hoping there's at LEAST ONE FREE PINT! Woohoo!

:cheers:

I would share a pint with ya....I enjoy it now and again.

Ryan² 12-30-2003 04:09 PM

I wouldn't. I've really gone off Guinness since I visited Ireland 5 years ago.

Steph 12-30-2003 04:16 PM

DM, CA and WI would be there, I'd bet!

MilkToast 12-30-2003 05:03 PM

mmmm.... Guinness.... mmmm.... tasty...

during college we refered to it as "Irish Cola" as we were not allowed to have beer in the dorm :D

(member of the 1759 society before it was open to the public... i.e. it still had a membership fee... but you got a real nice shirt and key chain out of the deal!)

Booger 12-30-2003 05:31 PM

Correction: Was! :)

Steph 12-30-2003 06:56 PM

You're more than welcome, MilkToast and Booger, too.

Just read today that Guinness is growing in popularity in Africa where many people swear it's an aphrodisiac!

musketeer 12-30-2003 07:47 PM

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Guinness gah gah gah

Cheyanne 12-30-2003 08:27 PM

I have never tried Guinness - are there different brands/types? Advice and recommendations would be helpful. I do like semi-dark beers and ales.... :D

Steph 12-30-2003 08:52 PM

Cheyanne, it is the darkest of dark beers! It takes several minutes to pour and has been around since 1759.

guinness.com can answer most questions

Give it a try, I dare you! :D

LixyChick 12-30-2003 10:07 PM

Isn't Guiness a stout? (sp?)

Oh...whadda I know? Anyway......I like micro-brews.....but I truly don't care for Guiness (or any really dark beer). I would, however, love to come to the party and sneak in a skin of my own drink of choice......hold a Guiness in hand....and pretend I am a supporter.........just to hang out with you guys!

Am I in????

Cheyanne 12-30-2003 10:41 PM

You are always in Lixy!!! I'll take the long road and pick you up and we will meet Steph at the party!!! :D :D

Will take ya up on that dare Steph...... ohhhhhhh you can be sooooooooo evil, but that is why I luv ya.. :D

I will pick up a pint at the store... thanks for the info Steph!!! Sounds interesting..... hopefully one of those widget thingies will be included!!! LOL

Steph 12-30-2003 10:47 PM

Yes, you'll get the widget dealio with the can. If you can, find a pub that serves it - it's much better.

Better yet, there HAS to be a rich Pixie out there who'll fly us all to Ireland for a Guinness tour!

eyesopen 12-31-2003 06:29 AM

Well not to make you all feel bad. A nice pint of cool flow to die for.
Cheyanne and all the ladys not to many pints or you will be on a diet for the rest of 2004. Happy new year for IRELAND.

Steph 12-31-2003 10:59 AM

ROFL eyesopen! Do you have an extra room, no make that an extra house for all us Pixies?

Ryan² 12-31-2003 11:07 AM

Guiness merchandise, now I love that.

osuche 12-31-2003 11:29 AM

I'm certainly in, Steph. Guinness can substitute for a meal at my house any day. :-D

Although I went out to a local pub the other day and they served me this vile mixture of Guinness and apple cider -- which I would not recommend.

Don't mess with the real, pure, unadulterated flavor of a Guinness.

That sounds like a black and tan or some variation of that drink, osuche. Did you request that drink or did they just give it to you?

Guinness merchandise is awesome! I hope to get a free shirt or something, too!

Here are some posters. One of my favourite watering holes has a giant poster with the horse on it - Guinness for strength.

another note on Guinness: a good friend's mother grew up in Dublin. Her mother is in her 60s and remembers when Irish housewives put some Guinness in the baby's bottle to help them fall sleep! :D
