      Don’t get why Islands edge was released at a time when Guinness is probably more popular than its ever been. As the Guru said 10 years they might have had a chance but not now. Can’t see it lasting too long.

    I was at Brien's the last two days for a few pints. They were good, being pulled by a very nice foreign girl. Unfortunately the head was waterey and thin with lots of bubbles. The pint itself was lacking something.
    Went back today and there was a very nice Irish chap pulling pints...top three pints I've ever had. Rich, creamy, sweet, perfect head. Mother's milk.
    Just goes to show how important the technique is as well as the product.

    As an Irish American who is very much into his Irish heritage and has been to about 370 Irish pubs in America and Ireland, the best pint of guinness I've ever had is Gravediggers in Dublin. Have had many in my times in Ireland and we have a great pub in Tampa, Fl. called Four Green Fields known for the best pint in America but hands down its Gravediggers overall. Guru would you agree with that? Think you would!

If you are normally just drinking in the UK then the gravediggers will no doubt be a step up - while it may be creamy it is still too bitter for my taste and really does not have the "ice cream effect" - if you walk about 15 minutes into phibsboro you will find a pub called "the hut" that has far far tastier guinness.
