In fact, I've heard more Guinness is sold in Nigeria than on the Emerald Isle.

Given that Nigeria has 35 times the population of Ireland, it doesn't come as a huge shock.

When I was in Ireland, I met a long lost relative who owned a pub. He said, by far, the most popular beer ordered in his establishment (and others he knew of) was... Bud Light!

I can also contribute a pint-sized cheap cocktail. I know it as a "sailors' cocktail".

10 oz of cheap white wine
3 oz rum
3 oz rapsberry sirup

It goes down like a soft drink, but you step outside and down you go.

It's Irish Car Bomb day!

Pour half a pint of chilled Guinness into a beer mug and let it settle. Take a shot glass filled with 1/2 oz. of Irish whiskey on the bottom and 1/2 oz. of Irish cream on top. Drop the shot glass into the Guinness and chug.
