Stout drinkers of the world, unite and take over

Sullivan's Black Marble Stout is a thing of beauty. Slightly sweeter. Brewed in Kilkenny.

The third pint is never as creamy as the first pint.

This might be as good as the sandwiches thread. A fantastic body of research for the good of others.

Crosskeys, about a mile from Ahoghill GAA for anyone who has never heard of it. Worth a trip in if you're ever down that direction for a match.
Only place I drink guiness up north.

Ha! Why? That's the obvious question.

Bushe's Bar in Baltimore, Cork is a wonderful spot for a pint of Murphy's. Sitting out in front of the harbour, watching the world go by.

Was in Belfast couple weeks ago on a Guinness run, Maddens Kelly Cellars and the Deers head were great.

Do love getting of the train and heading to The Crown for a Guinness though..

Some cracking places for stout in Dublin, McQuiads decent too

The pint in The Crown is average at best but hard to bear the location for the train.

The Guinness in the Crown actually comes from England-brewed in St. James Gate then put in tanks and sent to England to be kegged( in a distinctive orange banded keg as opposed to the black banded kegs here) and then shipped over here via DHL in Lisburn.

As for waiting for a train I would suggest Clearys in Amiens st. tops my list-6 euro for pure cream.

If some legend would compile this list by county / town for future reference [should a thirsty wanderer be looking for a recommendation] it would be akin to public service.

To contribute. North dublin city....gravediggers beside glasnevin cemetery. Best pints ever taken. Harry Byrne used to be good too. Mind you this was 20 y ago. But as we all know get a good name for an early riser you can lie in to noon. They'll always be good to me.

Madden's in Belfast.
Apparently the Buffs does a good pint but never been.

I had some very mediocre pints in The Harp Bar recently.

Regan's bar Maghera or Friels in Swatragh.

Portstewart arms in the port

Peader O'Donnells in Derry

Best pints of stout up round that direction

Harbour bar downings for a pint of Murphys

By far the worse pint I've ever had has been in the Glenavon Hotel.
