LG otm there. I rarely drink it in the UK unless I'm in a pub with especially dire beer choice. 95% of pubs in Ireland have especially dire beer choice so I'd probably end up drinking Guinness here anyway even if the average quality wasn't a bit better (less chance of "Extra Cold" anyway).
Not really a datapoint but the majority of my Irish friends drink Guinness regularly. It can definitely lead to an unforgiving day-after though, e.g. last Sunday.

also I have never ever ever gotten why people think it's so 'heavy' or is like 'drinking bread' or 'sits bad' - it is like, the lightest beer for me :\

Do you find that after 8/9 pints? I know what you mean to an extent, like you can really our Guinness away without gassiness, but it does ultimately leave you feeling pretty weary.

Apparently, under cover of darkness, the unthinkable has happened on Ask A Drunk: a serious conversation about alcoholic beverages, pursued in all earnestness, including the exchange of actual information and genuine opinions.
How can we put a stop to this?
