Next time I'm in Bass Lake I will stop by there. Which bar is it?

Degnan's Pizza Loft in Yosemite Valley.


Oh if your in Bass Lake DO NOT GO TO Tenya Lodge, it's owned by the same company as Yosemite Consession Services, but has prices that are TWICE that of the overpriced shit here. (Same stuff too)

I doubt the Bear would do around killing people. Scaring campers in the park though... :twisted:

Rolling a keg of beer over Half Dome might be kinda funny. I wonder how loud of a noise it would make when it hits the valley floor.

Guinness - good

Wasting presuried gass resulting in no guinness - bad

On a serrious note Guinness in America tastes nothing like the guinness made back home. I was in Boston once at an Irish American thing, which is where a lot of my dislike of Irish Americans comes from, and the pint i was given tasted like crap, i couldn't drink it.

They probably didn't now how to pour it correctly either.

No, not with a Shamrock. If I want that I'll draw one on with my finger. There is apparently a certain and specific way to pour guinness I've been told. I don't know what that way is myself exactly but I've had good pours and I've had very bad, bad pours. A bartender at a pub I used to go to showed me once but I don't really remember. I don't know how true it is but I've been told that old coots have been known to send their guinness back if it isn't poured properly. *shrug*

Hell, back in Slough I could pour a decent Guiness.

Having an Uncle from Scotland who loves Irish beer helps.
