Lost me a bit there Nelce but okay will try to write it a little clearer.
The best tasting guiness is brewed an sold in Dublin, Eire, made with the water from the River Liffey (bad spelling), draught.
Tried guiness from bottles or from thekeg in many different parts of the world and it never tastes as good, not a smooth or creamy but a little bit more sharp and acidic tasting than that served in the Dubbers pubs.
However when I have tried the guiness from the cans and especially the special can that does something to the guiness before you drink it, it is better tasting than the bottled or draught I've had outside of Eire.
Not as good but in between in the taste like Dubbers guiness. So in conclusion, guiness doesn't seem to travel well or can not be made without the famous river water, but does at least taste a bit better when stored in the can.
Feck thats enough for me today, got to go and have a little lie down now, this is like work but without any money being stuck in my garter. (whoops, nearly let the cat out the bag there!!)
