    Which one is better? If you're gonna say "neither" or "none", then you're not welcome in this thread!

    Voted draught, but I'm not a big fan of Guinness at all. I'll drink it if its going, but would never order it at a pub.

    Nothing quite like a lovely pint of draught after work. Can't stand fizzy drinks on a night out ( beer + cider ) makes you feel bloated. Guinness does give you a big shiny * the next day though

    If you go out and only drink Guinness it is a strange drunkness you get off it.

    I am a Guinness drinker and always opt for the extra cold tap. Have to say i really enjoy the drink more than any other pint, like actually enjoy the process of drinking it - contrasting with other drinks which i drink purely for the sake of drinking.

    Not a fan of it out a can at all though, it is easy 10 times better from a draught tap.



    Also, If you go out and drink and get past roughly the 5 pint mark, you can usually expect a surprise in the lavvy bowl the next day. A Guinness *™ :56:

    By Guinness Original, you mean Guinness from a bottle and/or a can?

    I much prefer Guinness Draught, it's my main drink when going to a pub in the UK. I need to drink a lot of Guinness before I get drunk (at least 6-8 pints I guess in a couple of hours, but by the count of 8, my stomach starts to protest).

    Do not like Guinness from a bottle (Guinness export over here is ok and it contains much more alcohol) and really dislike Guinness from a can.

    I am getting thirsty right now.

    Draught, although every now and then I have an original just to see if I've changed my mind.

    I thought there was another kind that Guinness makes, maybe I'm confused here. If that's the case I've drank plenty of both and honestly can't tell the difference.
