If I bought a Guinness tomorrow
My wife would think that someone had kidnapped me and replaced me with someone else.

I'm strictly a liquor kind of guy.

Now, if I brought home a bottle of Bailey's, it would be milkshakes all around.

Do you think that I'd like the stuff?

Never had it before

1. I'm not a hard liquor kind of guy
I come from Clevo, so a Boilermaker is about as exotic as I get..

2. After the 3rd drink, everything's good!
And I don't care if it's Milwaukee's Beast or soemthing imported from some previosly-undiscovered region of France.

3. I think Guinness is an acquired taste
As a former experienced beer drinker I can tell that I'd rather drink anti-freeze than drink a Guinness.

4. Good enough for me
Liquor for me and Dutch Imported beer for the Missus

It keeps the balance right

5. I don't like beer, so I like Guinness, and dark, heavy ales
And I do like Bailey's. My favorite drink is a black russian, then various margarita style drinks. I like drinks with an edge. American mass produced beer has never appealed to me. I'd try to force it down in high school, but I never liked it.

To give you an idea.

6. Am I the only one
who finds Guinness tastes flat? Flavor's mostly OK I guess, but there's so little carbonation, it almost tastes wrong.
