WRONG
Guinness is a worthy and delicious alcoholic beverage (although I'll admit it's possible to get a bad pint of it easily)
Additionally it's available in most pubs - so you know you don't have to drink Stella or Carling or Tennants *retch*
Extra Cold Guinness is an abhorrence though.

I'll only drink lager as a last resort, got some lovely breweries down this way, my fav being the hogs back, which is handy as I know the owner and get it on the cheap. ;)

Guinness is a delicious pint of porter ale which, although factory produced, is still a jolly good pint. It has been made for many hundreds of years and, although it's made and owned by a dreadful large company which spends all of it's money on marketing because it can't naff with the production or ingredients, is still pretty unchanged by that time ... ish *deludes himself*.
Extra Cold is the product of market research showing that larger drinkers might drink more Guinness in the summer months if it was cold and more like larger.
I think it ruins the taste and feel of it

Also, I hate barstaffs' assumption that you want extra cold without asking. If I don't specify I clearly want normal Guinness!
