It's whats called a stout or porter, there are lots of variaties.

Guinness is a nice drink but there are other good stouts and porters, and in recent years, smaller brweries and micro breweries have massively increased what is available.

Stout - Wikipedia

Porter (beer) - Wikipedia

And who does that? Leftists, Democrats and SJW's do that. They constantly tout the "browning" of America. Glad to see you finally admit that it's your side that are the actual racists.

I do not understand the concept of pride/ shame , especially about things one has no control over.

As noted - it is the only "beer" I like.



I typically like only liquor (very hard liquor frosted, no ice, no mixing of anything in it). So that I actually like a beer to my mind, is amazing. I like Guiness because it is similar to liquor to me and strong. Don't care about technicalities of it as I rarely drink it because when I drink, I'll drink some liquor. I also don't like wine and couldn't tell you anything about wine other than that I don't understand why people like it so much.

Yeah, there is a very long thread on this forum about leftists being upset that northern New England doesn't have enough brown people in it and how that was something they needed to rectify. How is that not racist?

My comment has always been that "Guinness stout is a beer you can sink your teeth into."

Well, technically this does not directly apply to any definition of "racism" you can find in any dictionary, nor the modern sociological definition of racism being pushed in universities.

Why do you feel it's racist? Because if you worry about the racial composition of society, that underlies you feel that race is an important aspect of identity? So anyone who feels race is important is racist?

Would then university affirmative action programs, which worry about the racial composition of their university classes be racist according to you?

The original article didn't say it was "racist" it said the bill boards were "confusing" to certain segments of the population, which I agree with. I honestly don't "get it" myself or see what it has to do with this tournament but it may be an Irish thing, who knows lol.

Guiness to pull Six Nations ad over immigrant offence concerns
So breitbart re-wrote the article to trigger Trumpers so they go all Snowflake.
Can we be honest and just stop linking and going crazy over stuff from breitbart. Beitbart is in the same business as Huffington post at this point, just click bait garbage.
