Reviews
"""The dog needs a bone, and the bone is some Guinness at the end of the day."" --Jason Momoa, on drinking Guinness ""This divine brew is so tasty, creamy, so near chocolatey in its rich buzz-giving qualities that the difference between this stuff here and the indifferently poured swill you get where you come from is like night and day. One is beer. The other, angels sing. Celestial trombones."" --Anthony Bourdain, on drinking Guinness ""Like so many things in life, a well-poured pint of Guinness is worth waiting for."" --Rashers Tierny, on drinking Guinness ""What we do every St. Patty's day, which is wear green and drink a lot of Guinness... Everyone ends up having to sing a song by the end of it."" --Saoirse Ronan, on drinking Guinness"
