What's a fair game? Bring Back the Good Rules!

[aslan]

Guinness is undrinkable except on tap. Bottles are downright disgusting, cans are a little better, but still way too bitter.

Really? I'll have to try the tap some time.

Got an opinion of a fair game? Or what you may consider....a Challenge.

For any Fellow Members out there. What do you consider a fair-game?

I think I read recently that Harrahs is not doing so well. Harrahs is known for bad rules.

It hurts me, psychically, to read this.

If your only experience with Guinness is from a can or a bottle, you're in for a hell of a surprise.

If I were to go to such an establishment, it would have to offer something other than beer. Otherwise, why go pay $3.50 per bottle when other places offer pitchers that end up being a lot more bang for the buck?

Generally if I'm going somewhere where I feel like the alcohol is overpriced then my attitude is, "Well I'll just get f*cked up before I go." Then I go and maybe buy a beer or two.

Again though, I have to admit that I don't usually drink tap beer. The only time I do is when I'm with a group of people and we buy in bulk, i.e. a pitcher. Otherwise, I drink Corona, Pacifico, Sol, Modelo Especial or Tecate.

The $3.50 price was several years ago. We currently charge $5 for domestics and Corona, and $5.50- $7.00 for exotic imports.

Actually, I'm just pulling your chain. On the other hand, it's the only way I can enjoy Guinness at home. Not being much of a drinker to begin with, I have never had occasion to compare the tap Guinness with the Guinness I drink at home. My guess is that I've had Guinness on tap no more than twice in my life. But don't let that hurt you psychically, I generally have no more than one or two beers a week outside my home, and that is often a less tasty low carb beer like Bud Select or Michelob Ultra. Does this mean I can't hang out here anymore?

Allow me to go on record as being perhaps the one Irishman in the world who doesn't like Guinness. Not in a keg-can,nor a bottle,nor from a tap with the shamrock drawn on the head,nor cut with orange soda,nor in combination of black and tan. Just not my type of beer.Its all good,though. Leaves more for the rest of you.
They do make a heckofa rugby shirt,though.

I wouldn't sweat it, I drink maybe six beers a year. Maybe.

But at least you've had draft Guinness at least once. =)

As I recall, it seemed thicker if that is possible. I don't think it could be any darker.

Yeah, you're right about that. Intravenous floats my boat.

And Guinness on tap in Ireland is much better than what we get. It's one of my favorites and I couldn't believe the difference when I was there a few years ago.

So your the one behind this 6/5 junk Carnival games! Honestly, you should have some Morals and go out stealing for a living.

 

[shadroch]

To be fair,Harrahs jumped on the 6-5 bandwagon fairly late,althiugh they were amongst the first to expand it to shoes( at O'sheas)

Doesn't anyone drink whiskey anymore!?

 

[moo321]

Doesn't anyone drink whiskey anymore!?

Yes. And with great frequency.

Nope,nore anyless!!!:devil:

 

[Knox]

Only jack@sses pay $3.50 for a beer with any regularity.

 

[shadroch]

That might be true in buddfuk Iowa,but try drinking in a NYC bar for that.
Of course,it takes a lot more beer to make those buddfukian woman look good,so its a tossup.

 

[bj bob]

Yeah, Shad's right. It's even tougher to find a decent hooker in NYC for $3.50 these days.
