The Temple Bar, the only pub you'd go into for "just the one" and mean it.
Pack of scampi fries for 3 quid 😂😂
You could only afford one hahaha 😀robbers!!!
Scumbags ripping off everyone
Or let the American relations buy them!
went in there about 5 years ago. Bottle of Corona and an amaretto and coke was 17 euro lol
14:30 with the violins on the first sip is absolutely hilarious
Most Guiness in city centre around €5.50 .. so if u go for 10 pints in temple bar it will cost you an extra €14 than other city centre pubs .. for that €14 you will have good atmosphere and live music all day ... so if u can afford it and enjoy live music its a no brainer . Or pay your 5er in the local and watch aul lads lose there bollocks on the horses all day instead .. each to there own
Do you need a discriminatory passport?
Great reply Aaron. Very easy to spend an afternoon in either type of pub
exact, you're paying for the atmosphere.
@@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw yes, you need functioning braincells...
@@coldphinger Your IQ, critical thinking and common sense is appalling
As you probably know, before 1999 every bar in the country cleaned there own beer lines. When Diageo bought Guinness that year they told every bar in Ireland to stop cleaning your lines. We are going to do it from now on, but it will be every 6 weeks. This is when a bar would have a consistent good pint or a poor pint.The bars with the consistent good pint continued to clean there lines every week as they did before 1999. 22 years on from that take over, the bars that rate a high score just don’t wait that long 6 weeks it’s still done weekly 👌.
Spot on Pal . I use to have two taps in a small country pub everytime a barrel ran out I would clean that one when using the Fresh clean one so the pipes where always clean ! People came from miles away because the pint was always spot on 👍
Diageo - Distillers - Thalidomide … Drugs & Alcohol
I never knew that. Makes sense now
just a small correction, Diageo didn't buy Guinness, Diageo is the product of the merger between Guiness Brewery and Grand Metropolitan. So, Diageo IS Guiness.
6 WEEKS is daft no matterr what all pipes should be done at leaset every week Idiots !!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks like the ring around the glass was water that wasn't able to drain where the glass has been stacked. Theyre likely going through enough Guinness to have amazingly clean lines, and glasses need to be stacked due to space and volume of pints sold.
As far as the price goes, you're paying for atmosphere, live music etc which is why they're busy in the first place
honestly prefer quiet pubs over more busy pubs to be honest, if im not out with the lads and pub isnt busy theres nothing better sitting at the bar and havin a few in my opinion
Magic moment: “Sailing” by Christopher Cross begins to play when the Guru takes his first taste of the pint at The Snug ;)
So perfect:))
I'm from Manchester England and I've never been to Ireland ( despite my name) I've been told it's very expensive. € 6.90 is only £5.76 in January 2022 . That's cheap for us I normally pay around
£ 5.50 to £ 6.50 for a Guinness in Manchester. €4.50 in the snug in is only £3.76 we've not paid prices like that since the 90s . I'd be in there all night.
I work in a pub where our Guinness is £5.60 and i always get told were so expensive. We are in the south west, but other places do Guinness for £4.50 and somehow make money. It's fascinating how a pint in a bar cost 5x the same pint from a convenience store. And yet I know we're not the most expensive place either... I don't get it
@@oliverworley5162 the cheapest Guinness I've seen this year is £3.20 in Bury Greater Manchester near where I live. I'd very happily pay more for Guinness in a good pub in Ireland.
Been into Mulligans Deansgate a couple times, that's £6.40 a pint
@@niallwood I wouldn't pay that . Its too much.
@@briandoherty3249 Shockingly priced, then again most pubs city center are charging upwards of £6 these days.
You should send a decoy in to order the pints so that you get an authentic pint off the staff.
Yeah they all go its yer man. We need a 'solid pint'.
Definitely like to watch the settle myself, soon as it’s topped up I like it. Part of the enjoyment for me is watching the pint change, sounds silly, but I think every Guinness man at heart would agree (sorry and ladies!!).
Ay ay
Some different comments regarding the staining on the glass. In my experience this is not due to wet glass or storage. It's staining from fat which is caused by washing with glasses that contain cream (such as Baileys). Guinness glasses should not be washed together with glasses which contained anything with milk or cream.
Spot on
"40 yrs, drinking the black stuff never wavered, pity the younger palate goes for cold. The Snug looked like a better pint , Great Video Thanks!
Absolutely The colder the drink the more the flavour disguised. .
There's something satisfying about watching your pint of Guinness settle before you can drink it.
I prefer when you pay for pints makes it seem more fair I hate when they give the pints for free because there only doing it in the hopes of getting a good review
I like it when it's just poured and I can watch her settle down. Snug point looks great.
@mano w: "Point"? You sound like a D4 Hino man.😄
Didn't the Temple Bar get in trouble for their staff assaulting a young fella who was dragged in without any prior involvement with the pub? I seem to recall he was a skateboarder.
Your right
Just saw this in my feed, halfway through my first video and I'm convinced this is one of the best channels on youtube!
I’m a new follower and I can’t wait to get back to the dub. Your videos are amazing fella. Keep up the great work
I knew it would be the Snug! I've been in there a good few times always had a great laugh....Also I like getting it straight away you can chill and watch it.
Love to watch it settle. Is there anything as magical as watching a Guinness settle in the world of alcohol or beverages ? Me thinks not 👌
'Look at the fuckin' dome on that!' Love it. Great video. Keep up the great work.
I don't care if it's the best pint in the country, I wouldn't pay 6.90 for a pint of Guinness.
you would if you were in the temple bar :)
@@catscantfly to be fair unless you’re a tourist you won’t be in temple bar so most of us won’t be paying €6.90 for a pint of stout
Try Dublin City on a Friday night pal it’s shocking 😂
@@murphyebass7837 If I'm going to be in temple bar district, it'd be at a place like The Palace. Not this spot.
@@larryolson397 fogey dew would be the only one I’d touch with a barge pole up that direction
The bubbles on the side might mean it’s an old glass and needs replacing. Especially in a busy pub like that.
In the UK there’s an M number on the side of the glass, that’s the year when the glass was made, I assume there’s something similar in Ireland
The glass issues is caused by the glass not having enough time to cool down after washing; and there's some residual liquid in the glass still.
Then being stacked on top of another one not fully dry either...
Many pubs prefer the pre gravity glasses. Which you can still buy
The bubbles on the inside is yeast stuck to the glass. The glasses just need to be put through a renovate wash cycle to strip them back to brand new
@@coldphinger only a philistine does not wet a glass before pouring a beer in it.
In Hanoi glasses of nice draft beer (bia hoi) were between 5000 and 9000 dong. 9000 in a great local place that was very lively during the day. Exchange rate was 25000 for one euro. So it was between 20 and 40 euro cents.
Met a Japanese guy who just came from japan for the bia hoi. He was on the costa concordia when it sank. Colourful character
If Temple bar wasn't so expensive would it get more love from the locals rather than getting grief for being a tourist trap???
It might but it doesn't need locals. Every tourist that arrives into Dublin Airport has heard of it. And with free live music in most of the pubs it's a mecca for them.
Yes
4-5 euro's for a pint sounds fair and should be the overall ballpark
In a city that attracts a lot of tourists it's pretty bloody good.
In aus most pints equate to $7.80. It hurts
That’s true tbh. In England you can expect to pay 5-7 pounds in London
@@cjrko Pints cost ~£5 where I live in London and it's not a cheap area I'll tell you that. I used to live in Norwich though and a pint was
@@ub3rfr3nzy94 I think a fiver is the general rule of thumb in London. Though the most expensive pint I got was about 7:30
I love getting the pint and allowing it to settle in front of me - it is magically and I enjoy that experience.
Don’t tell buisness insider or buzzfeed
6.90 euro is $11.25 Australian. Actually cheap for us in Melbourne. Some places a pint is now $16 (and more on public holidays with a 15% surcharge)
There's a place in Northcote you can get it for $8 on a Friday
As a kiwi us Oceania brothers get fucked because our drinking cultures are so bad that the tax keeps getting raised because so many people keep drinking themselves to death
Went the Dublin/Temple Bar for the first time a couple weeks ago. Although its a great atmosphere, live music etc, it is horrendously expensive, it is now €9 for a pint of Guinness, disgusting that, but problem is, people will pay it. I really like Dublin, but I wouldn't go again for that reason, too expensive. Ireland however, would love to explore more!
How in the fuck have they bumped it up more than 3 euro a pint in a year?
@@J10Wilshere Short sighted money grabbers, ruining our tourism industry
I never tried Guinness before I found this channel. I tried it for the first time over the weekend - loved it.
It’s amazing try a pint
Did you try it in Ireland or somewhere else ?
@@dylanmur40 in England. But trying a pint of Guinness in Dublin is on my hitlist
The ones in england and america tend to be pintmares
@@oscarosullivan4513 'pintmares' lol
I like to watch it settle. Many a great philosophical exploration has begun with the question- are the bubbles going up or down? But as it is now, out here in Western Canada I would just murder to find someone who knows how to pour a proper pint with the right dome. Tourism Ireland should be paying the guru...these videos have me thinking about booking a flight.
this man has a great job drinking for a living lol
Not too long ago a pint in Temple Bar cost more at night than during the day. He should have tested the night prices. 4.50 is a typical price on the West Coast.
I read a report that the night time price at the Temple Bar has reached 8 euro. Has anyone been there recently ?
€6.70 in Buskers for the Guinness. €7.50 for a pint of smithwicks or worse 7.50 for a pint of Fosters
Isn’t fosters Australian dutch gold
A pint of Guinness in the Temple Bar is €8.95 now….
Not surprised Temple Bar's so pricey. However €4.50 is excellent for the city centre. I pay around £4.00 a pint in rural Cambridgeshire, not the cheapest but when you consider how far it's travelled, I suppose isn't bad?
@bobby ewin the brewery in Scotland shut down in 2005.
@bobby ewin Gary's right, they closed it about the same time as Park Royal in London. There may be a store house, however it's all brewed at St. James's Gate, Dublin now.
£6 in outer london in places.
I think they shut the Scottish and English breweries because of falling sales
Not the cheapest? Fuller's in London charges over £6 for a pint of Guinness
Wales have loads of first team players either unavailable or injured. If they lose by less than 10 pts I'd be very impressed.
anyone who has ever worked with Guinness knows that the white marks on the glass are impurities that could come from anywhere ( dirty cloths , moist, dirty glass washer etc etc etc ) if possible i always hand wash the glasses before serving and trust me beer looks amazing
Unreal looking pints ,I prefer when it's still settling ,great video, you should go to athlone some cracking pints to be had
Straight away you get to appreciate the pour of the pint and enjoy the appearance!
One of the biggest sips on the planet
Come Donegal guru lad, plenty pubs still only charging 3.70€ up there
I’m from Dublin and was up in Mayo, got a Guinness, handed the lad a fiver and walked off, your man comes down and gives me €1.20 and a receipt.
Still in shock a month later😂
@@ckpalmeiras1318 go the auld triangle
Temple bar is like an airport terminal, people just pass through it.
Real Dublin pubs have regulars.
That fella in the background of Temple Bar is the Double of Nathan Gorman the heavyweight boxer!
Here in Calgary in Canada we regularly have to pay $10 for Guinness which is about €7. Not happy about it but it's all about what you're used to paying. Plus in the Temple Bar you are paying for the entertainment.
I think the high wages in Canada sort of balance it out though?
Used to get a good pint in a pub in Edmonton! Think the place is closed now unfortunately
Most of the bars in Ireland have good entertainment though.
Great vid mate, really good info for when me and the Mrs are planning a trip over to the land of Nectar.
I’ve heard that’s the only pub that increases their prices at night time, never been there, but I’ve heard people say it’s 6.90 in the day & 7.20 at night. That’s highway robbery paying 7.20, good reason for hate it just for that to increase your price depending on the time of day you’re in
Alot do this. Particularly the ones that turn into late bars/nightclubs.
It's to offset the cost of a late licence. It's a rip off bit it is what it is.
Would never touch the place with a barge pole
I like to watch the surge and the pint settle down , beautiful and relaxing .
Its simple really, the smaller the pub the closer the cooler is to the tap. Much colder and creamier pint. Big pub the the cooler is 5 meters away so more will sit in the pipes between pours. That's why you always get the best pints in the small pubs :)
50 meters away sorry
Temple bar is just one pint experience. My luck when i was there one man made a Guinness world record of playing guitar and sing. First time in Dublin i fell and love the city and peole. For me the best pint experiences was in 'the smallest bar" in the world and the "Oldest" in irland. Lot of craic and i even see the Riverdance. Lots of great pubs and one of the best Cities i have ever been
The Temple Bar, also known for bouncers who drag kids into their pub and beat the shite out of them. An absolutely horrendous spot
I doubt it
Absolute rubbish. Stop believing weird rumours
@@AmandaIrwin2022 there was footage of it so it's not really a rumour...
Why would you drag someone into a pub? Is it not drag out of a pub and kick the shit out of them?🤔
6:50 mans was squaring up 😂
temple bar is up to €7.90 now, but more worryingly is how other places are creeping over €6 & closer to this temple bar price from less than a year ago, it's like temple bar exists solely to make other places look more reasonable lol
It's expensive so they can provide live music all day I think
Living in London 6.90 doesn’t surprise me. Going to Dublin for a stag soon will probably pop in temple for one…
I'd sit there in the Snug and be happy. Saving almost a tenner over 4 pints compared to the temple bar. Seriously worth it.
I'd be avoiding the 2 jonnies but they look like a bit of craic also.
@@johnmc3862 Ah no harm in a bit of shite talk with the lads sure after a few jars you'd be at it yourself.
The tourist trap the temple bar. Good pint but bloody expensive. There is a bar over the liffey called O'Connell's . I found that quite good for a pint and the price but maybe prices have changed since I last went to dubs which was around 2016
Was in that pub before a Mayo match a few years back good enough pints 😘
@@jayd1974 I loved O'connell's when I went there. I did karaoke in there too. Memories aye. Sunk a lot of guinness and redbreast whiskey. 3 day bender. I don't drink anymore. Been sober 1 year 10 months. But so happy guinness brought out the 00. Just hard to get in England. Pain in the arse much..
in our local Catholic Club in Sunderland you can get 3 pints of the black stuff for the same price of the temple bar..
€3.90 a pint in Donegal, Ireland.
Was travelling in Japan...€12.30.
Tasted awful.
Try a local brew
If Temple goes through a lot of Guinness that means it's always fresh, and they might even clean their lines. Not too surprising that it's good there!
The ball related ads really puts me off watching the food/drink content
I'm absolutely mesmerised when I watch a pint settling in front of my eyes.
Just came across your channel, looks like great content. I own a pub in Anaconda, MT USA and we charged $5.50 for a pint of Guinness, which is 4.88 Euros. 6.90 Euro would be $7.78 US. Pretty spendy pint I would say. Cheers.
Don’t come to Australia if you think that’s expensive, pint is easily $10
Guinness in USA is shocking...
@@garybaine8818 And seeing people in Ireland drinking Bud light is horrifying.
@@racesla I'm from Ireland and drank nothing but coors light while camping in the Valley of Fire outside of Vegas. Was perfect, kept me hydrated and did nothing else. :)
@@MrTuxy lol Yes a very cold can must be a can, of coors light on a hot day, on a dock by a lake is the ticket. No need of water to keep hydrated. Cheers.
"Look at the fuckin' dome on that" 😂
Most Irish video I have ever seen, Says it like it is and there is nothing more relaxing drinking a pint of Guinness with a pair of shaved Balls..
Oi mate can you try some Wetherspoons Guinness. That stuff is beyond shocking. Might end up with some record low scores.
They don’t sell it in spoons in ireland
@@oscarosullivan4513 He can go to England
I like getting the pint before it is fully settled, that storm of milk is always nice to see, Guinness is about my favorite beer
You have fantastic taste my friend! Cheers
14:30 that's amazing timing for Christopher Cross to come and take it up a notch
Considering a $10 pint is the norm in Toronto, Temple Bar seems quite reasonable pricewise for a tourist trap.
9 euros is about $CDN 13
@@donovanmic I know the exchange rate. A pint of Guinness will set you pack more than $13 at a tourist trap in Toronto.
Might be wrong here but I’d be curious if the Trinity Pav is cheaper than the snug. I remember it was under 5 a few years ago but may have gone up since.
It's unfortunately completely normal to pay €7 for any beer at bars in Sweden :(
Aa det är synd, finns ju såklart vissa ställen som kör billigt på vissa tider men då får man ju leta lite.
I've traveled to Ireland 8 times for holiday from the States, and I've not stepped foot in The Temple Bar. I just don't understand the draw of an expensive pint being consumed with a bunch of foreigners! I'd rather find a pint with locals and genuine craic.
I live in Dublin, and never drink in Temple Bar. But lookit if yer a tourist in the city on a boring Tuesday night and there's fuck all craic going on elsewhere, I don't see a problem going and spending a fiver extra for a couple of pints in Temple Bar where it might be busy. Big fucking deal like!
There's live music and plenty of atmosphere in temple bar. It doesn't excuse the high prices but you can see why tourists go there.
Great atmosphere, famous bar, always full of people and live music
It may be expensive at Temple Bar, but it is good news that the pint is actually quality, because there are going to be a lot of tourists going there and it may be the only Guinness they experience and you'd hate for it to be a bad one.
i went to dub last year for the first time the first day i came i was right in the temple bar at lunch time it was heaving had 1 pint of guiness and i stayed for a wee while to enjoy the mosic then we left was back when i was leaving to go home and had a wee squint in to be honest i love the temple bar i love the music and the banter
Christmas decorations up!!! 🤯
The Auld Triangle junction of Gardiner and Dorset Street , had a great few jars in there and great craic ..
price per keg (depending on your venues contract exc) i belive is around 220 for a 55ltr (88 pints), cost price per pint 2.50 + 23% vat = 3.07
That's very expensive get them for way less if your moving them fast
@@conorcoughlan6881 ya I'm guessing so. What price were you getting if I can ask? My venue was only small say 10x kegs per week.
I think you should start considering price as part of the score as if you rate pubs highly but the pint in 6.90€ people might go and end up spending a fortune
Only fair to consider atmosphere/live music in that case. Some of that price diff goes into that sort of stuff
Gowl
i disagree. because the temple bar is centrally located and is always hoppin. You cant compare an aul lad bar with shit atmosphere to temple bar
Disagree on this too tbh. Its best pint not best bang for the buck pint. I think he does it spot on. Pint quality get scored and then cost and location disclosed. You make your own mind up about which you want more. I know which one i'd choose every time as i'm sure 90% of other dubs would.
Johnny and Johnny! 🤣
I liked Temple Bar for the little side rooms and such. My favorite pub was outside of Dublin though.
I love watching the cascade, it’s part of the experience, it’s part of the genius.
Christy Moore, the perfect music for drinking pints of the black 👌🇮🇪
temple bar your glass wasn't clean been a barman for 20 years i don't know why that happens but I have a hunch its a dusty glass and as the guinness settles its sticking to it, I think for the temple bar which me being from belfast have been in a good few times I would say thats unexceptable. Although maybe as you say they whipped out an old style glass for you and only washed it once, glasses straight from the box or unused for a while need to be washd at least twice before use.
When in the Temple Bar district you ask yourself if you should buy a pint of Guinness or a villa in Marbella! 😂
A trick I learnt from a old man 32 year's ago is to take a drink of it just before it's settled and it will be good 👍 worth a try guys .. from a 51 year old barman
I got charged €9.50 for beer in there one night, after a pendulum gig.... And it was stink.
Barman said "yeah that's €9.50 while handing the pint over"
I said no I only wanted 1, he replied it is only 1
Paid 7.60 for G in Auld Dubliner mid week recently (quickly left after one)
Wow
Shocking prices
New fan - only had 1 Guinness in my life. I reside in the U.S. - just haven’t had much of it. I’m going to give it a try now.
Hello pal I’m a new subscriber from Liverpool! Brilliant videos 👍
had a pnt of guinness in the hardcourt hotel last night. literally the worst pint iv ever had
For 6 Sheckles a pint I would be sipping it like Champagne dude!
I'm sure there are a lot of hotels charging more for a pint than the equivalent of 6 Euro 90.
In England there are few pubs that know how to pour a pint of Guinness . And when one complains , the same old commemt :- Sorry about that ,with fingers around th top of the glass !
Love getting it straight away and seeing the nitrogen settling 😍
I will be visiting Dublin in July. I live in Texas. I'm excited to go and doing Guinness at these two places.
I living in Birmingham, I only have a drink once a week in my local Wetherspoon's pub, Guinness is £1.95 on a Monday night.
Though I get its a tourist trap and that at Temple Bar. But that 6.90 Euro is only $7.88 US. Thats way cheaper for a pint in most of the tourist spots in the US. For example a Guinness in Las Vegas where I just was at ranged from $8.75 to $12 a pint. That's 7.66 to 10.51 Euros!!!
The snug is full of headcases. Great craic to be had there.
I work beside the snug and saw you that day and I’m only seeing this video now! Better go in there for an after work settler soon
Had a full day session in temple bar when I visited Dublin and loved it to be honest. Expensive but great pub and pints.
