#30. Foley’s, Drumnacool, Co. Sligo. €3.50

I had always planned to have the 30th pint of Guinness at the local. I’ve never been to the local pub as to try and avoid any gossip in the neighborhood. It’s been said “what they don’t know about you, they’ll make up.” I purposely took it easy on the pictures and even took an Irish contingent with me for cover.

(You may remember the sheep incident. Well, the “shepherd” came into the pub midway through my pint. I’m sure he had a few words to say when I left.)

This was a fine pint, and David and I agreed that if it wasn’t as cold, it would have been right there at the top. Still, I can’t complain that three of the best pints I had were within ten minutes of the house.

It’s no secret where the best pint of Guinness was on my tour, but I’ll dedicate a post to the perfect pint shortly.
