And saying thanks afterwards. Now that's a happy dog!

The research shows that I'm a responsible dog owner, by seeing to it that he gets a nutritious and heart healthy diet, including Guinness. Yes! Guinness! Take a look here:

Amazing stuff. I really must drink more Guinness.

Just imagine the health benefits if some of our brewing/mazer experts could combine the health benefits of honey with those of Guinness -- A Guinness clone/braggot!

Anybody out there willing to give it a try? Your heart will thank you. ;D

Guinness?!?

Turning into an Extra Stout snob of late. If I have to resort to the more pedestrian Draught, I get snarky about it.

I'm a total tyro with my first homebrew of any kind just racked into secondary yesterday, a cinnamon/clove mead. So I'm the wrong guy to first try a Guinnemead, but I'm *so* going to be eyeballing this thread for recipe ideas.

Regards,

I tell you what. My favorite bottles right now are the guiness 11.2 ounce nitrogen packed bottles with the little plastic guys inside of them. They're so easy to strip because the labels are shrink wrapped on. I buy them by the case now since I'll always need throw aways! Cheers,

Just perfect. Not only did Playboy vote Madison the number one party college in the US, the school itself just acknlowledged it by doing experiments to discover the health benefits of drinking alcohol. :D :D :D

Go Badgers!

We Irish (even if we are Irish-Americans) Have got to love that Guiness. Now we can love it for more than just its intoxicating effects. ;D >:D
