  You'd think, or hope, that for a 250th anniversary, they'd do a Jameson barrel aged Imperial Stout, or something like that.
  But no, Guinness will be Guinness. It's a very good brew, much closer to an Irish Dry Stout than the nitro draught. I wish they'd make it their regular brew and kick the "rocket widget" to the curb (or "kerb" as the natives say)

  I also think the 250 would make a great everyday stout for them - although O'Hara's is still my fave.
