Sounds good. Can you spare me a few bucks for the ticket and the beer? |

Haha a quality drink!! I had some last month in Dublin but the price was a shock. You can only have Guinness from the tap and not a bottle or can to fully enjoy it!!
Hard to find it in Korea  |

DAMN STRAIGHT!!
I was always indifferent towards Guinness until I visited Dublin and had a pint there.. I couldn't stop drinking the stuff! Its all I thought about while there. Its really that good.
There was another great stout I got turned on to in Ireland as well.. forget the name.. it'll come to me later.
Will you also be going to other places in Ireland as well? |

It's not bad in Newfoundland either.
I used to drink an Irish-style beer named Wexford, but I don't remember if it qualified as a stout.

O'Briens is an Irish-owned bar in Busan and Changwon (Gyeongsangnam-do) and has Guinness on tap cheaper than anywhere else in the area.

You know, I had no clue about Guinness, until I took the tour. My taxi driver to the airport in Scottland was named RONALD MCDONALD! He told me that the Guinness in Scottland was bitter, and to get the real think in Dublin! He was right. I got my first Guinness at the brewery, the tour includes a free pint on the top floor, in a bar that over looks the city. The tour is so cool, it has the history of arthur Guinness, as well as everything from publicity over the years, to films showing how the men used to make the wooden kegs! Off to see Joyce and Oscar! This is the greatest city! Cheers! |

Guinness is all I think of here as well It is like gold! The pubs are cool, a mixture with every class of people, young beautiful girls, old ladies, drunk bums with rich business men! The cool thing is that everyone is hypnotized by the great beer and the great music!
Got to go explore the country! Trying to go to the coast, the food is great here! Cheers! |

I went to the Guinness Brewery about 3 years ago and to be honest with you I was disappointed with the pint on the top floor. Some people have said the because it's very high up. But it would still be better than Guinness outside Ireland!! The tour is pretty good, that's true. I hope that you didn't buy any t-shirts in the gift shop? They can sure charge there!! |

Dublin and Ireland in general is a great place to go for some fun. However it's gone very expensive these days.  |
