Overheard at the table next to us, in the local Irish pub, asked by a 20 something kind of hipster/skate boy cleaned up to be respectable at the office:
To the waitress: Do you have Guinness here?
I expected the whole room to fall silent at that and am shocked it didn't.

Although I suspect it is not as dumbass as it used to be either. I have seen several Irish pubs both in NYC and NJ that have opted for Murphy's Irish Stoudt, or Smithwicks over Guiness.

Posted by: Michele at June 9, 2006 03:14 PMSeems goofy, but I suppose it was a legit question.
I'd prefer a nice cream ale over a stout like Guiness any day. But that's just me.
Heh.
