The flat Guinness was a suprise - it came from a can and had the nitro thingie, but it just didn't have the bubbles you would expect. We expect that a non-flat Guinness might be ranked differently. We all agreed that Wexford Irish Cream Ale was the worst, with everyone who was not me putting it below the line of drinkability. goteam was shocked at how tasty all of the stouts were, I guess that means her tastes are maturing :-P

HL is the only taster who had any claim at Irishness, but we all drank the not-very-foaming ebon ale and had colcannon anyway.

Maybe she just likes beer that eats like a meal; it being more food-like.

Historically, I've really hated on anything darker than a brown ale, so this was a really amazing result for me.
