    If that's wrong then I don't want to be right.

    Go for it but a word of caution, the new 470ml cans are supposed to be muck, avoid them.

    New 470 cans ??? Wtf.
    I’m in the north and hate the 440 cans of Guinness. Far too big of a head. Why 470?

    Unless you already have the Guinness, get something nicer.

    Guinness, a stout beer, is neither black nor dark brown. If you look closely and in the right light you can see that it’s really a very dark red that is the result of things that happen to the grains during processing.it contains less alcohol by volume than a typical draught. An average beer contains 5% ABV, while Guinness clocks in at just 4.2%
    studies have shown a correlation between moderate alcohol consumption and increased risk of breast cancer.

    Yeah, but at 4% Guinness is like a shandy.
    Belgian beers are 6.5% - 12%, wine starts at 12% and spirits at 40%.

    So Guinness is for the kids.

    Well I think deep down you know it's wrong. Maybe just wait till sundown at least. Walk off a loads of calories before you sink a load of beers

    Agreed. I’d rather have 10-14 cans of stout instead of 4 or 5 small cans of Bishop’s Scrotum DIPA.

    Oh don't I'm off the booze and your're putting ideas in my head. I let myself go last lockdown coupled with other personal issues and piled a ton on weight in no time at all.
