Guinness-loving researchers have claimed counties like Galway and Donegal score higher than Dublin when it comes to quality pints.
But that cannot be true, according to Darragh Curran, who was dubbed the Guinness Guru after quitting his decorating job in 2019 to go around Ireland tasting the world-famous stout. Darragh, 30, from Co Meath, says Dublin is marked down on average due to the large number of pubs in the city.
Dublin scored 7.95 out of 10, which is the same as Waterford, but less than Galway’s 8.53, Limerick’s 8.42, Kerry’s 8.31, Sligo’s 8.28, and Donegal’s 8.22. Researchers Casino Source said: “With no pub featuring a score less than 8/10, you will be hard-pressed to find a bad pint of Guinness when visiting Galway.
