The Primemutton's Dublin Pub Crawl Part 2, A Skinful of Guinness

Having Tried some famous pubs in part one of his tour, The Primemutton not only turned his attention to some of the big hitters in the Dublin pub scene , but visited a couple of attractions , namely the Guinness storehouse and Kilmainham Gaol.
While unfortunately the store house was serving up just as bad a pint as on Mutton's previous visits here 25 years ago, the Pubs Mutton visited were serving up some incredible pints . So much so that Mutton got involved In a couple of sessions and struggled to hold it all together at times.
As for which was the best pint on the particular 2 part tour, well watch till the end and you may well be surprised by Mutton's verdict.

Well , a lot of you have been waiting for this , but yet again the 1st day got a bit heavy as I was caught up in a session , and span out of control a bit so apologies for any slurring or sloppy camera work. Watch the video through to the end , you might be surprised by my conclusion as to which pub served me the best pint during this tour. Of course I'll have to check out some of these pubs again as the pints might not be consistent at some of the pubs.

[@AnnesleyPlaceDub70]

As a proud inner city Dub myself, the pint in the Skybar is horrendous. The bar down the steps underneath it serves an excellent pint. John Kavanaghs (Gravediggers) , inconsistent pints from average to excellent . Bowes? Fabulous. But for me, the best pint I've ever had is in Taafes in Galway City. Absolutely unbelievable.

[@primemutton]

I’ve been to Taafes a few times in the past but not recently

From Dublin and I gotta say, it baffles me and disappoints me in equal measure, why the pint at the storehouse isnt one of the best in Dublin. Should check all the boxes - frequently drank, clean lines, proper pours etc. No excuse for it to not be amazing. Great video anyways ,Mutt.

[@primemutton]

Yes I had equally bad pints decades ago and it hasn’t changed . It should be one of the best, but they have a captive market so they don’t need to do much.

Traditionally the snug was for women to drink in as it was not thought proper for them to drink in the public bar. It was also a handy spot for the local doctor, solicitor ( even the local Garda/police) etc. to have a sneaky or quiet pint.

As a bartender in a previous life here in Dublin i can tell you that the clenliness of the glass is hugely important and also what they use in the dishwasher, some pubs serve tea , coffee and food and the grease can make it's way into the dishwasher and onto the glassws , and also use detergent which affects the glassware too , Walsh's in Stoneybatter is far better than the Gravediggers, pint is better and the staff are not as full of themselves as in the Gravediggers.
