Which is my go-to beer.
Some time ago I mentioned Guinness to someone. He was somewhat of a youngster and went on how 'real men' don't drink it because it only contains 4.1% alcohol. I guess he's an IPA man, a high test that clocks in at 8%. Two of those can get a person a DUI.
I looked at him and asked him what time of day he has his first drink and he said never before 1700.
"Oh." I said. "I have a Guinness with my morning bacon and eggs. To drink all day you have to get started early. One certainly doesn't want to get folded up like an accordion before noon, do they? "
While I don't really, the look on his face was rather entertaining.
Maybe I'll write a post about the old days when I DID have a Guinness for breakfast.

For the record I have not had a beer buzz before 1700 in probably four decades although about a year or so ago I looked at a huge breakfast in front of me and my dining partner and I had a laugh and we both decided to wash it down with a Guinness.
