Looking forward to Guru Goes Global!! Wonder what the next English city will be. Might need multiple videos if you’re gonna do London at some point in the future
Extra cold was out in Ireland from 2000. Leave you with an awful hangover due to the extra nitrogen gas mix. Served at 3 Vs 6/7 for standard Guinness. Colder the product the less you taste. Extra cold dirt
Should you find yourself in Bristol at some point, I'd recommend Seamus O'Donnell's, Old Market Tavern and The Star (Fishponds) for Guinness. Also Flann O'Brien's in Bath (15 mins by train from Bristol). Would be interested to see what you think of the local equivalents (Butcombe Blackbeard and Bath Ales Darkside) too.
Mate they started installing the extra cold taps in spoons a couple years back and the quality is way better than it used to be, u can order 2 at a time andby the time you've done the first one the second one is still more than good to go, head still creamy white, and cold ,luv ya reviews pal 🙏🙏
@@stephencowley2117 Guinness is owned by Diageo who also own Johnnie Walker, Talisker, Captain Morgan's, Bailey's, Gordon's, Ciroc, Smirnoff, Moët, Tanqueray among other huge brands. You'd be hard pressed to find a bar that doesn't stock their products. It's a shame because they're currently taking the piss with their pricing in whisky and it'll soon reach their other brands.
Shenanigans is good but can’t believe nobody recommended Peter Kavanaghs. Easily the creamiest, most delicious, most looked after Guinness in the city. Great vid, though, good to see you going global 📈
Wow Flanagan's (Apple) has poshed up since I was going there, admittedly 30ish years ago. That seems so sanitized vs the place I went. Saying that I also spent most of the time worrying a pram or a bike or something else might fall on my head with all the crap they had dangling from the ceiling when I went.
Good job you didn't drink the stuff when we brewed it over here at the Park Royal Brewery? I always thought it thinner and more bitter? Even when I lived in Germany the Guinness was generally better there than the London stuff! Mind you, that was always in Irish run pubs. I remember having a Guinness in Cyprus back in the eighties, they used something like concentrate and an espesso machine for a half pint! Never seen it since the advent of the tinned draught though.
Been around the world drinking Guiness, its pretty good in most countries to be fair, ( on draught) youll know straight away when youve got a dud, as im sure you know!!!! im a Dublin man ( 62!!!) living in the UK now & its the only ting i drink, no top shelf, no lager, just the plain!!! And its pretty damn good over here, although its pretty damn decent almost everywhere in Ireland too!!! ( naturally) Keep up the suppin & stay well young fella!!!👍😎
@@kylebrown4032 Hi Kyle, blimey buddy, theres so many pubs in many areas. I live in Staffordshire & only use a couple of pubs where i know the Guiness is good, but youll just have to try as many out as possible & make yer own mind up, thats my best advice to ya. Enjoy tryin!!👍😊
All extra cold over here, apparently makes it easier to drink to get more of us on it in England. Me personally i hate it too cold and looses its taste
Probably varies by pub. The one I worked in the extra cold was the same as the normal tap just different colours. Was the same for John smiths and jon smiths smooth was exactly the same but people swore the smooth was better!
I had spme fantastic pints of guinness in that pub right outside Anfield on the corner. Best pint of Guinness I've had but I'm from Manchester and haven't been to Ireland (yet)
The best pint of Guinness I've ever had was in Boyle, Co Roscommon a few years ago. We were driving from Dublin across to Sligo on a hot summer's day and we stopped in Boyle for a quick drink.Maybe the weather helped, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven.
Hi Darragh, I see in the comments below that Guinness Extra Cold, was launched in Ireland in 2000. I was in Cork, at the time and all the bars were doing offers, free pints and giving out key rings etc. I find it really difficult to comprehend how two professional stout drinkers like yourself and Culzy, had never had Beamish, Guinness Extra Cold, or Murphy's. Just to confirm what the guy below says, there is a three degree difference between regular and Extra Cold. If it's available, which in the majority of places it isn't, I always go for the regular. Also mate, if you are going to do more reviews in The U.K., you'd better get used to the new glasses, Guinness, really push them over here. You will find some bars/pubs, who break the mould, but the majority will be the new glasses. Keep up the good work and as previously offered, if you get to London and want an elderly, but lagging assistant, I would like to apply for the position. All the best !!!
Best pint of Guinness is in the Red Lion Pub ,Chiang mai ,Thailand .The owner comes from Liverpool.Costs B200 (5 Euro ) for a pint of draught.Its shipped from Dublin ,so Guinness does travel .
Here in the states we have Guinness in a bottle and that by far is the unfreshest uncreamist Guinness u can get. He needs a review on that but as far as fresh from the pubs would be 10 steps ahead
If the first 2 pints are as anaemic as me bad self.. Onto the large buidéals of MacArdles n a few mellow yellows of Tullamore.. Times are you'd need a nappy.. And yer jaxy like a blood orange next morning.. 2 long a cat to be a kitten..
Alright mate. Big fan. Was thinking wanna come on our podcast to talk about, Guinness 😂 and of course you channel? Would love to have a chat. We've had the likes of Tyrone McKenna and Shane Todd on before. If you can't then don't worry. Hope you're keeping well. All the best lad!
In Ireland we had Guinness and Guinness cold flow. Then everyone was asking for 2 pints of cold flow instead of Guinness and then Guinness to stop it just made all the Guinness cold flow.
@@johnp8131 avoid any of the tourist traps anyway. Mainly crap apart from the Toucan which does a decent one. Honourable mention to the Coach and Horses Covent Garden / Wellington st. Lovely pint in there 👍🏻
The problem is you need to be shifting so much Guinness for it to be a constantly good pint. Extra cold is popular is because it settles quicker than normal "red" Guinness in the UK. I found it harmed the flavour of a pint when you had extra cold.
All the best Irish pubs in the UK are strangely on the West Coast. Best ones in Liverpool, Blackpool, Bristol and Cardiff. Out of my personal experience of course!
Are you after carnage or a decent pint of Guinness? you going on about irish heritage early on a sunday in liverpool! what do you want a load of leprechuans in the pub? Liverpool big Irish heritage most catholic city in England but we cant sit in the pub singing rebel songs just to keep you happy on a quiet Sunday!
Had Guinness in Clare, OK and a couple of dozen pubs in Dublin, good to average? However the best Guinness I've had was in Ballycastle! To be fair, Dublin was pandemonium when we stayed. Ireland v Australia in the Rugby world cup, The Liffey swim and The All Ireland finals all on the same day! So a lot of pubs were selling Guinness in plastic. Yuk!

Shenanigans - fuckin 'ell! Used to work in the building next door (LJMU site) over twenty years ago. That was a shutdown pub called the Rising Sun and Shenanigans opened mid-nineties. Gang of us used to go in there, was fucking brilliant, esp on a Friday night you'd think you'd been in there a couple of hours and look at your watch and realise you'd missed the last train....
Cold Guinness is awful. Don’t know how Guinness ever allowed Coldflow Guinness to be passed as acceptable. That style of beer should never be that cold.
See I'm in Australia I have always been used to cold Guinness my entire life nothing changed and hearing in ireland it's warm I can't wait to go there next year
I think Peveril of the peak would take some beating. The Irish landlady is 90 and still going strong. She’s had the pub for over 50 years and every drink is top quality
There's definitely places to get Guinness in Liverpool that's not extra cold, whether the pint would be any good by your standards idk but you can get it. Edit: You should come back and go to McCooleys on a Saturday night from like 10 onwards or anywhere in concert Square tbh they do become clubs rather than a pub/bar but the "crack" is sound
Just had a few pints of the black stuff in Liverpool city centre. Disclaimer- I'm no Guinnesseur.😮 Early in the day so 1st pint in some places so some discrepancy to be expected.. Best to worst. 1st Lanagans - Best by far 2nd O'Neils 3rd Shenenigans 4th The Head of Steam 5th Lime Street Train station Wetherspoons 6th The Old Post Office - Really poor!
Well these pints don't hold up must have been just a good one off cause flanagans Apple was pretty shite but the shtick was okay, only pub that stood out for me was shanangains
Guinness extra cold is brewed in the U.K. it was about in Ireland around 2000, I was offered it once in a pub in Roundwood, Wiclow,, because they said they had run out of Guinness. ( I know right, unbelievable) It tasted crap, first and last time I tried it.
