Someone just told me they didn't, and.. I'll be honest, I didn't consider that a possibility.
Does anyone else not like Guinness? |

I do prefer Murfies if it's avaliable but Gunness is OK.
But a good local bitter is my go to. |

Apparently it's really good, and I can believe it - Guinness is basically alcoholic bread, and non-alcoholic bread is tasty so. |

I can drink it but prefer pretty much anything else.
A good trad ale would go down well, porter is nice.

Many decades ago, I was on active service in a real shit-hole desert country. I had run out of water and all I could find was a small puddle in an overturned rusty hubcap. That's what Guinness tastes like  |

I've only ever enjoyed 1 pint of Guinness, and that was on the brewery tour in Dublin. I have no idea why, but it just tasted so much better than normal |

I worked in a pub that a lot of builders used and the Irish guys would always say the British Guinness is like piss water compared to the Irish. I got the impression it's thicker somehow? |

All Guinness sold in the UK (and most of Europe I think?) comes from Ireland. |

So, fun fact - since they allow kids to do the brewery tour they only serve non-alcoholic Guinness. This is why people think it tastes different. |

Absolutely love it especially the original bottled Guinness and more over the Nigerian export bottled Guinness
Years ago they used to give it in hospitals to pregnant mothers to enrich their iron content. !
Hence it’s good for you. !
I have been contributing to the Guinness family wealth for some good long years
I hoped by now I would be a preferential share holder by now. !

I like Guinness, mainly for its availability at mainstream pubs and venues, but there are better stouts and porters out there if, like me, those are your thing. I love a good craft imperial stout/porter 😁👍 |

When I first started drinking as a young’un I thought the older ones buying me the drinks were all having a joke on me. I was like “ha ha, this all tastes disgusting, when do I get to try the nice drinks everybody really enjoys” Guinness was one of those I tried and couldn’t fathom why the fuck anyone would drink this for pleasure. |

A cold wet glass. The first pour. Watching the storm in the glass staring to settle. The 2nd pour topping the glass up. Bringing the party back to life and watching ot darken and thicken. Lifting the glass to your lips. That fist tast that first swallow like the Irish gods made those wonderful drink just for pure pleasure.

Once a friend asked me for a baby Guinness so I returned from the bar with half a pint of Guinness and they weren't impressed for some reason.
I have since learned that this is not what a baby Guinness is. |
Reply privately (closed, thread got too big) | |
In the past I couldn’t stand it, but recently I was convinced to try one of the no alcohol ones and quite enjoyed it, and since then I’ve had to odd proper one too and enjoyed it, I couldn’t drink more than one every so often though |

It's an acquired taste. I drank it from 18 to my 30's, then went off it, and came back to it about 5 years ago. It can be very heavy, so I alternate with cider, but I prefer shorts 🤓 |

The real test is whether you like the Guinness 0.0%
That is when you find out whether you like it for the actual taste of it, or you like it because it gets you d*unk!!!
The answer…. 24 emergency cans in my fridge! |

When I was in military hospital many years ago, my army surgeon pre_cribed me two cans of Guiness per day! Lol |

I think it's ok even though it provides 0.3 milligrammes of iron which is a very small amount and doesn't provide enough for the body but slightly healthy and an increase on the volume increasing the 0.3 🤣😂 |

Does anyone else not like Guinness?"

Considering we are Irish, neither one of us likes Guinness, it's definitely an acquired taste we don't have 🤣 |

I think many drink it to appear cool and trendy, when they don't actually like it.
Most beers,lager, stout and ale's don't actually taste good we suffer the taste for the effects of the alcohol.
I can drink Guinness it's okay flavour wise it's probably what diesel tastes like I'm guessing.
But when the mood is right and you get the taste
But I'd prefer to drink Doombar given the option. |

I don't drink at all and never have done but it's amazing how many people have told me I'm not a true Irishman if I'm not downing pints of Guinness.

Nope.
A good wine or a cocktail. |

It’s OK, it’s not my go to pint, but if I must.. |

"I love a Guinness, and if you have a few no food is necessary as it’s a meal in itself.
I also like to blow a clit in the foam every now and then 😁"
I've always said it's a meal, couldn't agree more.
Incidentally I like blowing the foam clit too. ...we are still talking about Guinness right? |

I don't think Guinness has been trendy since the 1920s.. |

My bad... I read it as "I don't drink IT at all" |

As much as I like it,I'm at an age where I can't handle the volume of pints. 2 is my max.
My go to is whiskey. |
