How was the Guinness?
Girlfriend and I had dinner in Buckingham, PA Saturday and I tried the Guinness on tap - gruesome.

Best tap Guinness I ever had was at Pat Troy's pub in Alexandria, Va.
Pat pours a proper pint.
While in office, Ronald Reagan took Ireland's prime minister there for corned beef and a pint or two.
