Dave, from a business sense I would say it's a brave decision to get rid of Guinness, but I guess your pub attracts people who want to drink something 'non-standard'

I do like O'Hara's, but it's not readily available round here so more often go with Guinness, the bottled variety.

Brave thing to do, hope it works out.

Let us know if there are many requests for Guinness

I'd love to see the look on the Guinness rep's face when you tell him you don't want any more from him. I'd imagine it doesn't happen too often.

O' Haras is a lovely stout on draught and I would take it ahead of the big 3 anytime. As Noby says you're getting customers who are open to craft beer anyway so it may not be commercial madness. Then again I don't know if you get a number of regular punters who drink nothing but Guinness in the pub...

O'Hara's stout, of course. Guinness as it used to be 25 years ago might give it a run. (yes, I DO remember!). O'Hara's is very elusive on tap. It was supposed to be on tap in the Carlow Talbot hotel, but not available. I have had it in a restaurant in Carlow. If I am in Cork city, I have been known to drink Murphy's - not bad as a session beer.

I do that. When I go to the Long Valley or Hi-B I like to imagine I'm in a country with proper regional breweries and so I drink Murphy's. It's a shame more places don't carry Shandon Stout: it's way better than Blarney or Rebel, IMHO.
