Yeah, the Guinness pint is now 14.9 fucking ounces in the US. Relatives of mine in Ireland confirmed that if they did that shit there, they'd have another rebellion.

If I'm not mistaken, the guinness can is the same size as other US pint (16 oz) cans, but there is less beer volume because of the widget.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

The widget is so nice and crunchy though.

As someone that's not a beer drinker... What is a widget?

[-] AeroLemming@lemm.ee 7 points 7 months ago

It's a little embeddable mini-app that you can put on the home screen of your phone along with your app icons. For example, you might display the current weather on your home screen using a widget.

can also confirm that Guinness makes an awful Android launcher, like trust me don't even try it

Very helpful, thanks. I'm glad I upgraded to Windows Vista, because now I can use the widgets!!

It's a plastic ball with a tiny hole in it. When you open the beer, the compressed gas, nitrogen and co2, sprays out of that hole into the beer, making it creamy and frothy. Guinness isn't meant to be carbonated like most beer, so it's never "foamy"

Guinness has a little plastic ball in it to make it foam a certain way once opened

Draft Guineas is poured with a restrictor plate to give you that thick dense head. The widget in the can is to replicate that
