    I'm easy to find... go to where the Guinness is poured proper. BUT... I should warn you, it's my wife that pours it.

    Where in Knoxville are you?

    Haha! I live in Sequoyah Hills. It's really close and easy to get to campus. And I love the park. Hmm.. where the Guinness is poured proper.... I'm thinking, I'm thinking...

    I live fairly close to Sequoyah... off of Northshore. I go down to the park on occasion... it's getting to be that time of year again!!

    Guinness is an Irish beer, but you can get it in English pubs. You're 19, though... so you may have no clue, even with all these clues.

    well, even though I'm not technically old enough yet, I still frequent the bar scenes... but a couple of places have guiness on tap.. don't they? I thought they did anyway, but then again, I'm not a big guiness drinker. And, the bars I go to are either in the old city or on campus... hmm... an English Pub you say? No clues yet. hehe. ooh... oh wait. You said you live off Northshore.. isn't there a place there? What's it called.. something Union... I don't know. Am I right?;)

    DING DING DING!! ;) That's it... Union Jacks.

    There are several places that have Guinness on tap, but few that pour it properly. Say Hi if you ever see me around.
    Take care!

    aha! That's it. I couldn't think of the name, but I knew it was on Northshore. I wasn't aware there was a proper way to pour it! If I ever see you, I'll say hi, but I'm usually not down that way too much. :)

    It's true... and unfortunately not many bartenders know it either. I met my wife at Union Jacks... I fell in love as soon as she poured me my first proper pint. She actually has made me a shirt that says "I love my bartender so much I married her", and it's true.

    Anyway... I've traveled Ireland a few times, and was taught that the proper pour makes for a much better taste. The correct way to pour Guinness is in a two part action. Firstly hold a clean/dry pint glass at a 45 degree angle and proceed to pour the Stout against the glass until it is 3/4 full. Allow the Stout to settle for about 3 minutes, or until it's solid black, then slowly fill the glass to the top leaving 1/4 inch of creamy head.

    SLAINTE!
