“I should like a great lake of ale, for the King of the Kings. I should like the family of Heaven to be drinking it through time eternal.”
Kinsale Brewing
Kinsale is a beautiful spot on the southern coast of Ireland. The type of place you visit then decide to stay longer. Great pubs, great food town, a wine museum and Kinsale Brewing. This is good solid pale ale country. Anyone who buys a six pack of Heineken or Stella would love this. I cannot recommend the town and the brewery highly enough. The photo below should sell you on going…
Guinness 250
I tasted the 250 from Guiness today. Quite the odd beer. The barkeeps were not enthused by it at all and I can see why. It is the regular stout that is watered down with Irish spring water. It is not bad at all. But it does have a more carbonated/soda-esque taste to it. With a nitro tap it might be even more pronounced. Either way, I am not sure if it is a marketing ploy.
