'warm' Guinness is a myth.

anyway, great game!

Before I really knew about the entire Ireland thing (you are correct BTW), I would drink it at about 75F or so.....still good.

I guess WARM is relative

(It's warmth as it passes your lips is another matter entirely.)

sandgk has it right. The Guinness in Ireland (and elsewhere in the UK) is served at cellar temperature.

When making a Black & Tan (or a "Buckeye" as I call them on game day), separation is maintained better if the Guinness is a few degrees warmer than the ale.

1.) Who was doing the camera work for this game? Was this outsourced to the Helen Keller school of photography? I've seen better camera work from the stands with a 10mm hand held on you tube.

2.) The only thing more embarrassing than Andre Ware in the booth was Andre Ware's pro football career where he was not only a major bust in the NFL but in the CFL as well. 83 passes and 5 touchdowns with Detroit, Andre was the 2nd QB's backup. I think that means he didn't even have a clipboard to hold.

Regarding the "piling it on comments" by Andre Ware, let me just make this rebuttal. Which game were you watching? What part about Tressel's expression did you not understand? Or are you as bad at reading facial expressions as you were at reading the Lions play book?

Don't answer that Andre - just stick to AM radio - much like the NFL/CFL it's clear to me that you aren't ready for the big time and at this rate, I'm sure you never will be.

After this, I really don't want to hear any more complaints about BTN telecasts. I always mute the TV if the announcers are bad, and I mute Pasch/Ware on sight now. But next time I see them, I'm going to start a new drinking game...

Every time the Pasch/Ware production crew rejoins game action after the tackle has been made, everyone has to drink.

There may not be enough Guinness in Ireland to finish a game though.

Several years ago, I was in a brewpub in Victoria, BC, that posted the temperatures at which each type of beer was served. Stouts and Porters were served at 53F degrees, and the temps went colder as the lighter the color of the beer.

DYK that Guinness brews 6 million pints for domestic consumption per day, or about one pint for every man, woman, and child in Ireland?

Brutus2002, the Guinness in the traditional bottles (extra stout), and Guinness draught are actually different recipes. If you've only had the extra stout, you should try the draught, it's much less bitter. Unless, of course, you just don't like dark beers.

McNeil is a Ball State alum, so he's probably just a bit biased.
