G is for Guinness Critics — St Patrick’s Day A-Z

Personally, we're big fans of Guinness -- it's our beer of choice all year long. On St. Patrick's Day, though a lot of people will order a Guinness to celebrate, despite the fact that they do not like dark beer, and will proceed to complain loudly about how it "tastes like cake batter," and "looks like motor oil." Then there's those who say that you "haven't tasted real Guinness unless you've been to Ireland;" those people are the worst.

If the complainer happens to be a health nut, you can tell them that Guinness has only 125 calories a glass, while Bud has about 145. It also contains small amounts of iron, calcium, phosphates, some vitamins (including vitamin B) and fiber. Then you can tell them to shut up and drink their Guinness.
