    Wash them out with Harp.

    You could always try licking them ?
    At least if they dont come out they'll taste nice :)

    Seriously though, try Vanish mousse (sp?)

    Well, I reckon if you want some good advice on how to get Guinness stains out of a white shirt, asking your local, friendly barman would be a good start. I'm sure they'd have plenty of experience in dealing with those kinds of stains. Or asking your local, friendly glasses collector in your local. I'm sure they've got plenty of experience too, usually from having to deal with people spilling drink all over them of a Saturday night! :D

    Other than that, I can't think of any other way I'm afraid. Is there any kind of Stain Devils you can get for Guinness or similar stains I wonder?

    Rub it on both sides with beetroot. Hang it overnight on the clotheline and rinse.

    Or else just use your normal stain-remover.

    Or just put it in the wash. Works for me.

    Have you put it through a normal wash? Any time I've spilled that beautiful dark gift from the gods that is Guinness on my clothes, a regular wash gets rid of it.

    Step 1 : Undo all the buttons of the shirt
    Step 2 : Gently slide each arm of the shirt off Guinness Stain's shoulders.
    Step 3 : Get Guinness Stains to put a blanket or something around him in case he gets cold.

    See ... Easy. Also works for removing other colour shirts.
