Having lived in Galway for over 30 Years and been a Guinness Drinker for the last 10 there are some pubs in Galway that I will not go into because they cannot serve a good pint of Guinness.

All the top spots repeatedly mentioned there have the barrels on the same level as the taps while the slop merchants often have them in a cellar below (pumped up )
