Murphy's is good. So is Beamish. But, neither is widely available nor does it store well.
One of the worst things ever to pass my lips (other than when I talk) was some stale Murphy's in Southampton, England. That still gives me nightmares, and I don't think I'll need to be embalmed when my number's up as I'm sure there is still poison in my blood from that!
Murphy’s and Beamish are both made by Heineken. Heineken has pulled out of the St. Patrick’s Parade to show their support for sodomites. So they are both good beers if you support homosexuals.
