Why Guinness bubbles fall
By John von Radowitz

It is more than just a load of old Blarney: the bubbles in a pint of Guinness move down, instead of up, contrary to the laws of physics. And scientists have come up with the proof to mark St Patrick's Day.

A team of Scottish and US researchers produced, for the first time, video evidence to show bubbles being dragged to the bottom of the glass.<snip>

The effect occurs in any liquid, the scientists said, but the contrast between the dark stout and its creamy bubbles makes it easier to spot in Guinness.

and there was a science discussion of this topic that needed to be settled!
