Look what I bumped into the other day in Arromanches, Normandie.
Not one but 2 XM's in front of a French pub selling the famous black stuff that supposedly is very good for you
As with all, some hate it and others love it.
Not that I went in, but I've never had a decent pint of Guinness abroad.
I myself, prefer the berline

Unusual to see an estate in France.

Good spot Jaap, as Peter says, estates seem rare there now.
Regarding the black stuff, they say the further from Ireland it travels, the worse a pint you will get.
I don't drink it so I have no basis for comparison

My guess is you've never been to Japan.

Not that I can recollect
Are you telling me we've got kegs of Guinness on A320's straight to Tokyo into the Irish pubs there??
I never knew Japanese drank Guinness but having said that I do remember Japanese eating raw herring in Amsterdam with tomato ketchup
