I'm glad you were able to make it out to Brooklyn and Queens. If you're Irish and want to be around proper Irish pubs and generational New Yorkers, you can't beat Sunnyside/Woodside in Queens where the pubs get down to county specific decorations and patrons. If you want to be around a lot of transplants and hipsters with solid bars/clubs and a few decent Irish pubs, then any of the gentrified parts of Brooklyn would be the spot, although you'll be spending just as much on a hotel in BK as you would be in Manhattan.
it is a NYC law. that glasses are not only cleaned but also sanitized. a germ doesn't have a chance! I got pint glasses in Dublin that still had women's lipstick on them.
Welcome to Brooklyn Guru! I grew up in Bensonhurst, south Brooklyn. Love your videos and will check out all of the best pints in Ireland my next trip there!
Interested in checking out Hartley's for sure. A couple Brooklyn spots I like for guinness - The Wicked Monk in Bay Ridge (also good food), Brooklyn Public House, & another spot I came across recently was Smith's Tavern
Is the 'twang' taste in USA maybe because of different glass cleaning methods compared to Ireland/UK? I always imagine everything American = more chemicals when compared to Europe! Maybe try: cleaned (US method) used glass vs new(/used (washed with Irish method)) glass to see if it tastes different!
There is an ideal temperature for guiness it's like 57degrees which is like irelands annual temperature But Americans like their beers colder . And to slide with the daily temp.
I'm often wrong, but I thought that the guinness in the USA was brewed in and exported from Ireland, whereas in all/most other countries it is brewed domestically and a "Guiness flavour extract", produced at St James Gate, is added. Maybe they brew a different formulation for export to USA (with the twang).... Here in New Zealand the Guinness in pubs from the keg is brewed domestically and doesn't seem to have the twang, while the widget cans which are imported from Ireland do have the twang.
Dear internet, please review and rate everything in the world. Pizza, hot dogs, chicken wings, corned beef, hotel rooms, hotel towels, and now, Guinness. Guinness is a brand. They export the same beer.
Hello there Guru, what's the craic. Got an idea for ya. Could do best pint of Guinness in Turkey and get it sponsored and could get ya mop sorted while ya there, always thinking, just friendly bants and advice, thinking of it me self tbh haha 🙏🍻
@@SilverSamurai12 As a Canadian I can't sleight either place... but there is no comparing the Irish bar scene in Toronto to that of Vancouver. In terms of making a trip cost effective, there are a handful of worthy places in all of BC to check out compared to a gluttony of Irish pubs just in Toronto alone.
Funny you went to Iona. I think the day I saw and commented on part 1 (Saturday the 19th?) I mentioned hoping that you'd come to Brooklyn. That night I went to the theater down the street and was going to stop into Iona to kill a half hour. It was 6:30pm and the place was too packed to enjoy myself, so I went straight to the cinema. That night we went to a bar called The West, then left and stumbled across an Irish bar, The Clonard, just a few doors down from the place we were planning to go. Wound up crashing what appeared to be an Irish wedding, but I think was just some girl's birthday. Lots of dresses and bowties. They were going to the bathroom in pairs and threes apparently doing lots of cocaine. For awhile I think we were the only Americans in the place.
I’ve enjoyed yr whirlwind tour of NY n prices are mental for a sesh. Anyway, not sure why Iona are serving the black stuff n a Belhaven glass but they are yr Celtic cousins..👍
Interesting that you say it’s too cold. I’ve never experienced a beer in my life that was “too cold”. Except when I accidentally froze a beer and it turned into a slushy.
For me, Guru has made a living out of talking to people who 'sell' the product. In reality, he should just rock up to James' Gate and chat to those who 'make' the product. It's a bit like chatting to some one on moore street selling iphones vs. a product designer in silicon valley.... All will be revealed....!
the twang could be from Guinness being brewed in America and possibly different laws and regulations do impact even slight variations in ingredients or temps
@@darwin6883 i think the environment does effect how you enjoy a pint e.g a good pint in uk is always smh not as good as an Irish one because when is Ireland the experience is a factor. heck it could be down to how many they pour in a day i doubt many americans are avid drinkers of stouts and ales so they probably anrt poured as often
Nice little video.. bit if constructive criticism, and i understand coming from Ireland where everybody is looking at you sideways wondering wtf you're doing talking to a camera.. but, be more confident talking to it, especially in a city like NY where half the people there are vloggers, no1 gives a shite out there what you do, same goes for any major city.. Also, you just traveled across the Atlantic on an expensive trip to the most famous city in the world, record it, people love to see footage, don't even need commentary, cities speak for themselves.. Keep it up man and fuck what people think

Off to NYC in March these videos have been very helpful
Guru you are the goat
Huge fan. Sunnyside resident here. Wish we could have caught you and had a Guinness!
Belhaven brewery is in East Lothian, Scotland! Their headline beer is Belhaven best, but they also do a stout Belhaven black’
Little late to this video but you have to do Donovan's in Woodside. Best pint in the five boroughs!
I'm mad to go back to New York now to check out the bars & Guinness 💯

including flights, hotel and spending money how much would NYC cost over 3 nights ?r
What’s the tune playing in the last pub?
I'm looking for it myself. It sounds like Rejjie Snow

What about Woodlawn, Bronx

You should have hit the Bronx. Next trip
Hartley's reminds me of a bar in Liverpool called Hobo Kiosk
Boston next lad surely
I've been to NY two years ago and like you have food out the pint is quite regularly and good in irish pubs . I was surprised 👍👍
Belhaven?Scottish brewery.Strange seeing that on the side of a pint of Guinness.
Rogers in Rockaway Beach would’ve been a move if you had the time!

You know when you see that old school Guinness tap that the pint is gonna SLAP

worked / thing out in Iona for many years. great spot
well done Hartleys

Come do Washington DC
Now that you've ticked LA & NYC off the list the next 5 North American trips for a pint should be Toronto, Chicago, Boston, Montreal & Newfoundland.
While not east coast, Vancouver and Victoria also serve good pints.

I think the M means 2000 like millennium. Isn't M the Roman numeral for 2000? I'm probably way off but that's the first thought that comes to mind

The Irish & Cocaine. Your not far wrong 😅
My grandmother is from Brooklyn
You should have gone out to Qatar for the World Cup and reviewed the Guiness out there. I can only imagine what it'd be like...
Doesn't M stand for Manufacturing date. So M18 = 2018 etc
Thanks Johnny 👍🇮🇪☘️👍
You “happy with that” merch brother
Wonder why they had a belhaven glass (Scottish brewery) for their Guinness ahaha
With prices like that, do u have to tip?
Yes, tipping in the United States is expected in bars and restaurants.
Bro's in GTA IV
I’ve enjoyed yr whirlwind tour of NY n prices are mental for a sesh. Anyway, not sure why Iona are serving the black stuff n a Belhaven glass but they are yr Celtic cousins..👍
i think that twang is they slightly change their recipe for kegs outside of the UK to keep better when traveling.
Interesting that you say it’s too cold. I’ve never experienced a beer in my life that was “too cold”. Except when I accidentally froze a beer and it turned into a slushy.
In England they usually pour from an "extra cold" tap which isn't a thing in Ireland. Might be the same in America.
Guinness I'd supposed to be served at 42.8° f, unlike every other beer
A pity you weren't able to say Hartleys was the best pint you had on your trip (which it seemed to be) because of the guy you were with.
He said literally that
Iona is one o f the best!
Also,she's Irish 😊
Smashed it Darragh👌

Hope you called into McDowell's for a burger
the twang could be from Guinness being brewed in America and possibly different laws and regulations do impact even slight variations in ingredients or temps
I'm skeptical of the twang. Blind tasting would result in not being able to taste the difference. Too bad they can't be poured side by side :/

@@darwin6883 had pints in New York 100% a different twang compared to Ireland
Astoria kid born & bred.. fuck the hipsters, Astoria was an awesome neighborhood long before any transplant got priced out of Manhattan & Brooklyn
Yessssssss bossssssss!
Maybe the twang is the fda glass cleaning chemical they make them use in the US 🤔
Iona is Scottish, Belhaven is Scottish beer. And yet again, the best Guinness in a “non-McDonalds” bar…penny might be dropping….
Sláinte!

How's new York really?? Guiness guru
Comment for algorithm
#detergent = shite taste. Same as aT home.
It's the water in NYC.
The barnet has great domage....shave it off yah spud
Guiness has been sat in the lines for ages that's why you get a big head.
Not really. It's invariably down to the the gas mix or the way it's been pulled.
@@Standard_Jay gas too but also, it being sat in the lines overnight. That also would've given it the funny after taste
@@MysteriousRider84 plus first pint of the day
Guinness*
@@ericmharper predictive messages, and you felt the need to correct me. Wow...
Guinness is bland.Move on.Still no mention of the fact it’s pasteurised .
If you apply Rogaine twice a day, your hair thinning will be sorted in a few wks
Would his physical appearance be more to your liking then?
So basically…a bunch of shite pints in NY
