as for beer--yeasty + fruit. take heart...you'd still be one of the manliest at the table
Whining about a lack of Guinness isn't manly?
there are far manlier beers than Guinness. and frat boys don't whine; they suck it up and order a PBR

But various forms of liquor do have a long history as being used to cure ailments.
True Story:
many years ago (let's say ~20), the doc prescribed a tbsp of whiskey for my brother's ear infection.
Whiskey is great. not only does it "cure" infections, it also solves external environmental factors, such as cold and rain.
Or a Rogue!
I really don't know why you would waste your time at a trivia spot without a good tap selection. I started my trivia career at a bar with 20+ taps, and now that I've moved there is always at least one bar doing trivia on any given night. Even the pizza bar with the easier trivia has guiness available.

Beamish will do fine. Sometimes its an either or. When I was in Ireland this year, the bars predominantly had Guiness on tap, but some would tap Beamish instead and not offer Guiness.

I don't know. They're both flat, weak stouts...what's the difference? The best Guinness is their "Foreign Extra," which they don't ship to the states, and is actually bottled in the Netherlands, iirc. It gives Sammy Smith a run for its money (it's also 7%

Foreign Extra is very tasty, got my first taste of it at the St. James Gate Brewery!
I cannot condone your attack on Guiness Stout/Beamish though. They may not/can not be the end all all-father of beer, but they are worth drinking.
Back in college I postponed a cold with liquor. Started feeling sick on a Thursday evening, and definitely was feeling it Friday. I drank heavy Friday and Saturday, felt great the whole weekend including Sunday, and then woke up Monday with the cold again.

oh, I don't think they aren't worth drinking. I'll drink Guinness in a pinch, when my other choices are MGD and Bud*
I would take any other stout, though, and likely any Pale, Porter, IPA, Amber....

What about red wine (antioxidants)? :wine:
It's extra manly if you brown bag it straight from the bottle, but of course you can't do that in a bar.

Over proof rum and lime juice, seriously my grandfather would have that if he felt he was coming down with a cold.
