I’ve still never been there – maybe sometime in my next 38 years. I didn’t realize their bar area was so distinctly separate from the dining area. And free food!

It holds an Imperial Pint (20 oz.) and is designed for the purpose of serving ale. <br />As far as the drinking of Guinness at "room temperature", it always cracked me up to go to a pub and hear some faux-erudite American insist that their Guinness be served at room temperature. The barman would pull a bottle from the shelf and giggle as he served it. The term "room temperature" is clearly misunderstood by so many. Just like with red wine - room temperature in California climbs far above proper serving temp for the wine, yet people insist upon serving their red wine at 80f because it's "room temp". Please...Use that hat rack of yours.Nosh Gnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903701073242931822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-36836734153657373992011-09-01T12:14:22.386-04:002011-09-01T12:14:22.386-04:00Some non-holiday Monday we can go there and get Lu...Some non-holiday Monday we can go there and get Lucy a little pint glass full of Guinness.JustinMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976061296214532098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-54653575366331583702011-09-01T12:08:29.559-04:002011-09-01T12:08:29.559-04:00Looks like a great, relaxing place to enjoy happy ...Looks like a great, relaxing place to enjoy happy hour. <br /><br />Yeah, the presentation on the shrimp is something to behold.

But if that's what has to be done for such a nice setting, oh well.<br /><br />I have a beef with you types who talk about drinking Guinness at room temperature. Guinness in Ireland is served slightly warmer than it is in the USA, but it is nowhere near room temperature. That is just a myth that is repeated by people who have not been to Ireland.JustinMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976061296214532098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-2543990287940581602011-08-31T18:36:28.894-04:002011-08-31T18:36:28.894-04:00I dislike paying more than $5/pint for Guinness.

And if I were charged a few dollars more and served in a big mustard jar, I'm not sure if I'd be able to enjoy my pint.<br /><br />The oversized mustard jar here also looks frosted.
