“They say you drink Guinness with your eyes,” he said. “If it forms the perfect, 1-inch head on the pint, not only does it look appealing but you know it’s breaking out the gas right.”
And the head should last, clinging to the sides of the glass and forming rings of creamy foam as the pint is drained — a tell-tale sign of each sip.
“You’ll have people who get very particular about their Guinness,” Baugher said.
So true: A well-poured pint of Guinness is more delicious than a poorly poured pint. It is all about aesthetics.

I ordered a Guiness at a pub in Ireland a couple years ago.
The bartender filled the glass and set it to the side of the fountains. I reached to grab the beer, and he bartender looked at me with the crazy eyes and asked what the hell I was doing. I told him I was grabbing my beer.
He proceeded to tell me how a Guiness is really supposed to be poured by letting it sit for a minute as opposed to the way it’s done in America by pouring off the head like its a Bud Light or something.
Oh, he also gave me the crazy eyes when I tipped a few Euro as I left the pub.
not everywhere in america do they do that. my ex drinks guiness aaall the time, and we have been to alot of bars. and they always poor right.
