I bought an Irishman co-worker born and raised in Dublin his first Guinness ever.  He wanted a Heineken, I thought he said Guinness, since that is what everyone there drinks.  He was hesitant when I came back with it, said it was his first one ever, had asked for a Heineken, swore to God, bunch of others confirmed it as true, he never had a Guinness before.  I said I would one day tell my grandchildren about it.

True story.

Actually, they all don't drink Guinness over there.  The best selling beer at the restaurant in the St James Gate brewery is...Bud Light.  Apparently when the economy was in the crapper (before it got very good, then went in the crapper again) locals couldn't afford to drink Guinness on the regular, so they took to liking relatively inexpensive American imports.  They remain very popular to this day.

So yeah, they'll have a Guinness on special occasions but the locals don't drink Guinness exclusively or even very much at all (nor is it the only popular stout there either.)

ETA: Dublin is very much a party town.  Even during the week you'll find big crowds out and about into the wee hours of the morning at the bars.  Guinness is not that conducive to all night drinking on a regular basis, lighter beers are.  And I love Guinness as much as the next guy, and I know they pack fewer calories than you'd think, but lighter beers are much easier to pound all night.  Because of that lighter beers are more popular there with the locals.

ETA II: Guinness in Ireland tastes better than Guinness here.  A pint at St James Gate Gravity Bar is the finest you'll ever drink.

I used to go to an "Irish" pub when I lived in Las Vegas. I was talking to the bartender who was Irish; as in, straight off the boat Irish. I asked him what beer they drink in Ireland; he said..............Budweiser. I asked him about whiskey and he turned me on to what, in my opinion, is the best whiskey I ever drank: Red Breast.

Now a buddy of mine, who is in the US on a green card from England, grew up drinking Guinness, said everybody there drinks Guinness, and he still drinks Guinness to this day.

I never needed to do my genealogy because my family (on both sides) did that as time went on for hundreds of years. Family bibles and all that, although on my mothers side, about 40-50 years ago they compiled all the information and had it printed into a hard backed book.
But, I decided to cut to the chase and sent a mouth swab DNA sample into the National Geographic Genographic Project.  All this did was prove what I already knew and I suddenly realized that I had wasted my money.

So I was doing my family history tonight. I had hit a helluva wall and some other gentleman had completed the tree and it matched with mine. Turns out I have an Irish ancestor that came from over there in the 1850s.





Ofcourse it had to be the most stereotypical one of all. My English blood isn't as pure as I thought.
