You know what I never liked the stuff either, I thought Smithwicks dark ale was better and if I had my choice I would go with Stella Artois or Heineken. I don't drink beer often but when I do I want the good stuff!

Stella is great stuff. I drank like 30 kegs worth of Heineken when I was in Ireland LOL.

Ya know the proper way to say Smithwicks is "Smitticks". Now I feel like Pedigree Ann...

If you haven't try Kilkenny, it's looks like a mushroom cloud when it is poured into a glass.

Nope, out of a keg it is drinkable. Out of a bottle it is totally skunked. The whole point in everyone using a brown bottle is to prevent skunking.

But hey, if you don't want to believe me, it is only rated the 710th best European Pale Lager in the world:

I think Heine out of a tap is great.. agree that its not as good in a bottle, but I disagree about Green bottles. Stella is a green bottle and I love my Pennsylvania Lager.. Yuengling.

Maybe it's just me, but I have always been fond of Heineken, if I go to dinner and feel like a beer it's usually the one I have with a meal, no I believe you I just don't know or agree on why it would be rated that low.

Both Stella and Yuengling are much better on draft. Yuengling is still good in bottles though because darker beers are much more resistant to skunking. Stella is really not that good of a beer but it is far better than Heineken.

That is by number of reviews, check the Avg column, that is the actual rating.

Was out on the Saturday Night and wasnt in too much of a shambles. Just had a few coronas and a lot of Jager Bombs..

Not the biggest fan of Guinness myself or indeed Kilkenny or Smithwicks. I used to have one or two when I was younger but not anymore. If I was having a stout and it would be rare, Id have a Murphys.. My beers of choice would be Corona or Ken!. One of the good things about the states is you can get Ken Light..
