The ultimate illustrated guide to Guinness and the history, culture, and facts to help you find the perfect pint-from the pub to the pour-wherever you are.
We've all got a friend who claims to know where you can get the best pint of Guinness. From the pub to the pour, it's just as much an experience as it is a drink. But the man who truly knows best is London-based Corkman Ian Ryan – founder of @Sh*tLondonGuinness and @BeautifulPints, and in A Beautiful Pint, he shares his expert tips to help you find it yourself, every time.
Including the all-important elements to look for in a Guinness pour-from exact foam height and storage temperature to the crucial glass shape and settling time-as well as what to run away from when seeking a beautiful pint and a crème de la crème guiding list of pubs in New York and around the world, Ian shares his expertise from many a “pint of plain” sank and enjoyed. By the end of it, you too can guide your friends to the best pint of Guinness in town.
