Oh joy! I am probably the worlds number one fan of Porterhouse Chocolate Truffle stout. I hope this years version is as good as last years. I presume it will be out for their Irish Independent beer festival.

O'Hanlons Original Port Stout is listed in Porterhouse's menu (as both an Irish and an English beer <!-- s:? --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_confused.gif" alt="" title="Confused" /><!-- s:? --> ). When I asked about it I was told that the menu was just an example of what they have in stock and that they don't have this beer.

Good ol Porterhouse staff eh? <!-- s:roll: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt="" title="Rolling Eyes" /><!-- s:roll: -->

This list reads like it was lifted directly from the Top 10 of one of the big American beer rating websites.

Good beers, sure, but lazy journalism, too, I suspect.

Very true

What's the consensus on Guinness Foreign Extra?

I quite like a bottle of it now and again, and the Nigerian variant, which is extremely hard to get, is a bit different again (sorghum?) but imho is Nigeria's best export.
