Switch 'em over to Yuengling... so much better, still American, and their distributions channels have grown quite a bit. I was one happy camper to see them finally distribute in Ohio. It's a great lager... and doesn't taste like nothing!
Its funny. Some people's home-pride grows when they cross international borders! BUT...having said that. Would I drink a Harp where I sit? I WILL in me shite!!! <--feckin likely! But...not a lager guy...or lout!
Smithwicks? Sure.
Guinness? Sure.
Neither as default, though! In a pinch...sure.
Guinness at home on an all night mighty bender for breakfast? Absofakkinglutely! What its made for, no?

So this has definitely been interesting... fermentation to take about a week. The wort looked as if a baby had eaten it's own diarrhea then puked it back up. If it didn't smell fantastic though! Just finally got the house back to normalcy.
Bottling in one week, and carbonation 3 weeks to follow! Can't wait! 5 gallons on standby!
I'm going to start a German Dark lager after I bottle this batch.
Please continue to document!
Great stuff, V! Haven't done it in a long, long time. Must be a great time to do so.
Enjoy!

I'm the same way... get me tastey beers from EVERYWHERE. No limitations, no nothing. Lots to sample, and I plan on sampling!!
Brewing is a great plus, too. Only recco I can give from past experience: Get setup to brew two. Keep trying new ones, but continue to brew your "current fave" and hone it (and your skills) by making it taste like you want it to. <--can take a few goes
ps- When I said..."<--feckin likely!" above about shiting meself? Should have read...
<--NOT feckin likely!
Oooops
