Guiness the beer company giving out world records.
Beer companies in general have a stadium/arena named after them, it gets confusing after Saku (town) has a beer company names saku and they have a stadium/arena in Tallinn (hosted Eurovision 2002 btw)
The world records thing started as a way to settle bets in bars, meaning they stayed in the bars longer and drank more Guinness. So that makes sense. Similarly, the Michelin guide was something to make the idea of driving more attractive by giving tourists dining information.
Going to have to have a Guinness while I ponder your response.
I betcha can't do two.
Easy. I'll down one now.
Ugh. I'll wait a bit before the next one.
Fact: it's really hard to down a Guinness. I tried it once. Never again.
Weird, I've never thought so. People say it's so thick and heavy and you can just drink one or whatever, but I find it more filling to drink lager. It is ackshually more calories in a standard lager than in a Guinness, or so I heard. Feel free to fact check as I can't be arsed.
Compared to many craft stouts/porters, Guinness is super thin.
Guinness has a similar amount of calories as a typical American light beer
Guinness is not gassy, so it's a bit easier than normal beer.
Not gassy is true. Easier than normal beer? From experience, the heavyness of Guinness makes it harder.
Yes, it's more viscous. Like downing an average milkshake.
Or motor oil
I suspect motor oil is more viscous, but I haven't downed a pint of it to confirm.
My favourite is the Busch Stadium.
Sportsman's Park was renamed Busch Stadium in 1953; then-team owner August Busch Jr. had planned to name it Budweiser Stadium, but at the time league rules prohibited naming a venue after an alcoholic beverage. Busch named the stadium after himself, and the Anheuser-Busch corporation later introduced "Busch Beer".
I don't know how I never put 2 and 2 together on that. wow
