Don't cheapen the black stuff

Tall, dark and unashamedly creamy, Guinness is one of the finest drinks a person (or penguin) can buy with their money. Properly poured, it ranks as the greatest thing to put in your mouth that isn’t a pie. But every year, millions of people see it as a ‘novelty’ item so they can pretend to be Irish.
Guinness is not the novelty item – you are. If you don’t appreciate its brilliance on the other 364 (or 365 on a leap year) days of the year, why hammer it down on this one day? Just drink your usual imported lager, sit in the corner and shout the generic obscenities that have been dying to escape your mouth all night long.
Meanwhile, everyone that actually does love the black stuff doesn’t have quite so long to wait for all the other pints of Guinness to be poured that won’t even be properly worshipped.
Happy St. Patrick's Day - and in the words of Super Hans, “No logo in the foam”.
