Summary

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。

I won a copy of this book。This was a fun book about finding the perfect pour of Guinness。 Ian Ryan started a website mocking England bars for bad pours of Guinness。 As the site grew, Ryan decided to write this book and it's so much more than just looking for the perfect pour。 Ryan discusses everything Guinness, becoming a sort of master of all things Guinness。 The book itself is pocketsized, so if you were to travel, you could take it with you to find the perfect pour。 Great gift for the Guinnes I won a copy of this book。This was a fun book about finding the perfect pour of Guinness。 Ian Ryan started a website mocking England bars for bad pours of Guinness。 As the site grew, Ryan decided to write this book and it's so much more than just looking for the perfect pour。 Ryan discusses everything Guinness, becoming a sort of master of all things Guinness。 The book itself is pocketsized, so if you were to travel, you could take it with you to find the perfect pour。 Great gift for the Guinness lover in your life。 。。。more

This book is a good bit of fun。 Wouldn't be quite as appreciated by non-Guinness drinkers but might give a little insight into the world of Guinness。 Some interesting facts and quite humourous throughout, it's a great stocking filler for a Guinness fan or to buy yourself if you're a big fan of Guinness。 Everything you need to know about the beer you love。 This book is a good bit of fun。 Wouldn't be quite as appreciated by non-Guinness drinkers but might give a little insight into the world of Guinness。 Some interesting facts and quite humourous throughout, it's a great stocking filler for a Guinness fan or to buy yourself if you're a big fan of Guinness。 Everything you need to know about the beer you love。 。。。more

To understand Ireland through a prism of a beautiful pint of Guinness — the Irish national treasure! Finished it with a smile on my face :)Sláinte!

Really light read, surprisingly well written - if not a little short。

Darragh O'Sullivan

Great little handbook。 Informative, light-hearted and as niche as a pint of cream poured in the Spalpín。 Chatting to Ian over the years and following the rise and rise of Sh*tlondonguinness and Beautiful Pints has felt like a personal journey。 It was the only thing on my Christmas list 😂

Never worked in a pub and it shows, stick to the world of Warcraft videos pal

Paddy McKeating

I can see what he was trying to do but it just didn’t work。 A missed opportunity。

Mary Ryan

Great book。 Very funny and a really good read。 Highly recommended 👌

Spencer Preece

Brilliant。 A must read for Guinness fans。

Connor Drew

This book is great craic! A brilliantly witty guide to Guinness with some top notch pub recommendations! Think I’m gonna have to try and tick off all the suggested London ones! This would make for a great Christmas gift or if you’re just a big fan of a pint of plain。

Rebecca Stone
