Pouring the perfect pint

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

There are tons of pour videos out there. Here is one from Late Night, where Guinness’s brew master shows Jimmy Fallon how to pour the perfect pint.

Guinness Bread?!

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009


Saw this bread mix at the store the other day. I took a picture and my son asked me why I was so obsessed with Guinness. He’ll know some day. My wife asked me why I didn’t get it. It really would have made for a nice pour video.

I checked FedEx and the Mr. Beer system should be at my house any minute. I ordered some extra hopped malt, and regular hops, to supplement the brewing stuff it comes with. Who wants to spend all that time and come out with bad beer? I expect to put everything together on Saturday.

250 Anniversary Stout

Monday, April 13th, 2009

On April 24 Guinness will be introducing a new stout. This will be the first new stout introduced to the US since Guinness started importing here in 1967. It will only be available for a limited time, around 6 months. You can bet we will be enjoying some of this on April 24.

This brew will pack a little more punch. The alcohol content of the 250 Anniversary stout is 5%, the Traditional stout clocks in at 4.2%.

Pouring will be different too. The anniversary stout is poured once at an angle. Unlike the 2 step process used for Guinness draught.
