Does anyone here find Guiness.....
 

......too dark and heavy? i tried it for the first time last night and i thought of a beer flavored milkshake, it was so heavy. And what the hell is that plastic thing at the bottom of the bottle?

You make it sound like a beer-flavored milkshake is a bad thing. If you think Guinness is too thick, I'd recommend you stay away from Russian Imperial Stout.

if you are going to drink it at home, drink it out of the cans, not the bottles. but don't drink it at home, drink it at a bar. taste improves 10000x

Guniss is not thick at all, its actually comparable macronutrient-wise to most light beers here in America. Its just that the its brewed with burnt hops, making it look dark.

There is the time for Guiness, and there is the time when another beer is better. You just need to find out the right time and you'll learn to appreciate it much more.

Ohhhhh, Guinness...how I love ye...

Now look what you've done. There's drool on my keyboard.

On the contrary, I find most beer-flavored-waters (Bud, Coors, etc.) thin and undrinkable. Real beer has, well, stuff in it.

In my college days a GF of mine worked at a nearby pub, where they had about 25 beers on tap but nothing with the word "Light" in it. Only people who got mad about that were the frat brothers, and it was always a laugh to hear it explained that the pub only served good beer.

Edit: That "plastic thing" is there in hopes that people who have had real draught Guinness don't take one sip of the bottled stuff, spit it out, and throw the bottle at the nearest child.
