    I drink Budweiser (I don't care what you all say, I like it!) and the best I've ever tried is in Busch Gardens in Florida. It's made on site and it's so fresh it's unbelievable.

    The best pint I've had?
    Sitting out at a bar in Nice, Southern France.
    It was evening time, the sun was going down on the yellow/blue horizon in front of me where the beach was and the day had come after a stressful few weeks.

    You can't bate a nice cold pint of san miguel or alhambra in the baking sun. Otherwise the only other pint that stands out to me is Peroni they have on draft in the Joiners Arms in Finchely, London. Christ that is some good stuff!

    If it was O+ might have been one of mine. I'm sure you're good for it should the need arise for it to be given back!

    If we're talking Guinness I've had many a great pint outside of Dublin. I don't know why - you'd think it would be the other way around. The pint in the Stag's Head is usually quite good as it is in Kehoe's. The best was in some tiny little place in Cobh many many years ago - probably because it was my first getaway with my girlfriend of the time who I was crazy about. The pint was pretty damned good.

    The ice cold can of cider I had after work last night was phenomenal.

    Can't beat the pints on a Friday after a weeks work!

    A few weeks ago, had a fine pint of O'Hara's stout on draught. Oh boy, it was like heaven with each gulp satisfying my taste buds. Ya know, you could drink pints of that stuff just to enjoy it rather than get pissed. Its the way you should enjoy drink rather than downing pints 'just to get pissed'.

    I have to say upstairs in the pallace Bar on Fleet St. at a session with my then new GF were some of the best pints I ever had.

    First they came for the socialists...

    Can't beat a sloppy pint of Guinness in a plastic glass on a hot day.

    I love a pint of Guinness. The best pint Ive ever had was pulled by my own father in his own back garden. In a not so little bar he built with his own hands!

    Burns in Shercock, Co. Cavan is the best around, although that might be local prejudice.

    McGintys in Cavan town, good music there too, so no complaints.

    Murty Rabbit's on Forester Street off Eyre Square in Galway is the creamiest and coldest I've had, great attributes for a pint of Guinness.

    Taaffes on Shop Street in Galway has had great pint on the last few occasions I've been there.

    The Spirit Store in Dundalk. Fantastic music venue too, one of the best pubs in the North East, a good crowd always goes there as well.

    I was working laying stone in a garden and I needed a **** but the woman was out so I needed a **** bad from about 2 in the afternoon until 5, a terrible ordeal for all involved indeed. So after work we went to the pub where i had the largest **** ever. It was about 101 Courics, beating out the previous owner of the title biggest **** in the universe.
    After this I went out and there was a lovely pint of Guinness waiting for me, I had her in one go and never felt better in my life.

    Over in the UK most, if not all barmen/woman don't believe in the two part pour and pour it like a pint of ale! All down the glass in one go!

    I am too mannerly to say anything...more a fool me!

    Your going to the wrong pubs. I've never been served a pint in one pour when over in UK.
