A cowboy walks into a bar in Texas, orders three mugs of Bud and sits in the back room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he orders three more. The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, "You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it from the beer tap. It would taste better if you bought one at a time." The cowboy replies, "Well, I have two brothers. One's in Australia, the other's in Ireland, and I'm in Texas. When we all left home, we promised we'd drink this way to remember the days we drank together.
So I drink one for each of my brothers and one for myself." The bartender admits this is a nice custom. The cowboy becomes a regular, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn. One day, he comes in and orders two. When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to pry, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss." The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then he laughs. "Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explains, "It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church so I had to quit drinking. Hasn't affected
my brothers, though."

(Not meant to poke fun at anyone's religious beliefs)

The brewmaster from Budweiser, the brewmaster from Coors, and the brewmaster from Guinness walked into a pub after a brewer's convention for a drink.

The brewmaster from Budweiser said, "I'll have a Bud, the king of beers!" The brewmaster from Coors said, "I'll have a Coors--it's the water!" The brewmaster from Guinness said, "I'll have a Coke."

The other two looked at him in horror. "Why'd you order that?!?!"

He replied, smiling, "If you guys aren't going to drink real beer, then neither am I!"

Gotta agree Russell,
Worked my way, through college, in an Irish Pub.
I'm still a regular, at least once a week, gotta get my Guinness.

I used to just drink Miller, Bud, and the like. (Hey what can I say I'm from Milwaukee) But lately I've been getting into more of the "real" beer. But I just don't like Guinness. To me it taste like bacon. Maybe I'm just not mature enough in my beer tasting to enjoy it.

Hey Plabonte are you getting the Guinness on tap? We have one bar here in St Louis where the Guinness tastes just like you said greasy bacon. At the other bars it is fantastic - I prefer a Bass/ Guinness black and tan.

Tell em to clean thier lines.

An Englishman, American, and a Canadian went to a pub for a beer. When the draft was delivered they each noticed a fly floating on top. The Englishman pushed his draft away in disgust. "Bloody hell, I cannot drink such a mess!" The American shrugged and picked the fly out of his beer. He then proceeded to drink it. The Canadian was very disturbed. He picked the fly up, shaking it and yelled, "Spit it out you ****! Spit it out!"

I've tried it on tap and from the bottle. It still has a bacony taste to me. I do like the Bass Ale though.

I was at an Irish pub one time and asked for a black and tan. They corrected me and said a black and tan is an english drink. In an Irish pub its a half and half.

I have heard of several versions, of 1/2 portion Floaters, so to speak. 1/2 and 1/2 Guinness over Harp, Black and Tan, Guinness over Bass, Comfortable Shoes With Guinness over Newcastle Brown Ale. Any way you look at it the Guinness always comes out on top. LOL I named one myself. Murphys Stout, over Murphys Amber, is a "**** Son". But I'll stick to my straight Guinness.
