Guinness: The 250 Year Quest for the Perfect Pint | Bill Yenne
5 posts
"But Guinness is more than a delicious beverage, it's also the name of the remarkable family of brewers and entrepreneurs whose story is worthy of legend, and who occupy a prominent place in Irish history. In Guinness, Yenne traces the 250-year tale of the family and its namesake beer. Beginning with Arthur Guinness, the entrepreneur patriarch who first began brewing at St. James's Gate, Dublin, in 1759, the story follows succeeding generations of the Guinness family through the years. Yenne follows not just the fortunes of the family Guinness, but also the development of the brand and the beer - from Arthur's earliest porter to the beer that is enjoyed in 150 countries today."--BOOK JACKET.

Every year I make this cake for my hubs birthday. It‘s only supposed to have a cup of beer in it. I may have “accidentally” used the whole bottle. The batter was delicious. This has been another episode of #bakingwithbeer

Tamra 🤪 Funny! 7y
CocoReads @Tamra it makes a really heavy dense but moist cake. I don‘t even like beer but I love it in this cake. 7y
Tamra @CocoReads is it a replacement or an addition? I bet it is moist! I have used fruit juice and apple sauce, but not beer. 7y

CocoReads I‘m guessing replacing the water? I mean I rarely make cakes from scratch except for this one. But it‘s such a winner here. 7y
tammysue Ooh it sounds good 😋😅 What cookbook are you using? 7y
CocoReads @whatshesreadingnow Its actually from one of those grocery store checkout magazines that I picked up years ago. If you want the recipe, I‘d be happy to share if you want to leave your email. 7y
tammysue Definitely, thanks! I‘m andresen at adams dot net (edited) 7y
CocoReads @whatshesreadingnow got it! I‘ll send it along shortly. 7y
tammysue 😊😘 7y
Reecaspieces ❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏😂😂😂 7y
laundry_piles I would love this recipe! 7y
CocoReads @laundry_piles shoot me your email. As soon as I get the scanner working, I‘ll send it to you. I didn‘t forget you @whatshesreadingnow —the hub is off tomorrow, between the 2 of us, we should be able to get this thing working again! 7y
tammysue Hopefully it‘s something simple that‘s wrong🤞🏻 7y
CocoReads I‘m pretty sure it‘s operator error (me) 7y

#perfectpets this is Guinness, named after my husbands favorite beer but he's demonstrated a preference for me! He's a bed hog and not to be trusted around food or trash but I love him anyway. #awesomeautumnbooks

LauraBeth He's adorable 💕 7y
Captivatedbybooks ??? love the "not to be trusted around food" 7y
CocoReads @Captivatedbybooks he's very interested in food. Our last dog didn't care so we got spoiled. 7y

Probably won't get much more reading done because this happened today! Meet Guinness. #dogsoflitsy

DGRachel Yay! I love that name! And he's soooooooooo cute! 😍🐶😍 8y
CocoReads @DGRachel he came with the name but that's my hubs favorite beer so it was meant to be! He's an old guy (10) but old guys need love too. And he has lots of energy. 8y
CocoReads We've been home an hour and I'm exhausted! 8y

ValerieAndBooks Aww!! How old is Guinness? 8y
ValerieAndBooks I posted my question about the same time you mentioned his age 😊 he looks younger than 10! 8y
Sace Awww! Welcome to your home, Guinness! 8y
DGRachel Part lab? Because if so....I don't think labs ever wear out!! 8y
Lynnsoprano 😍😍 8y
CocoReads I think he's mostly lab but they said he was a mix 8y
LiteraryinPA Congrats on your new addition and reading buddy!! 8y
seebiscan Adorable! Congrats on the new pal! 🐶 8y
CocoReads Thanks. Despite it being my hubs idea, I'm actually more excited about it than he is. 8y
Wife He looks very similar to my dog Reilly. Everyone thought he was a black lab, but had pointed muzzle and littler ears than a Lab. He was a really good dog! He passed away about a year ago and we miss him. 💔Enjoy your beautiful new baby. He's so lucky to have you, your husband, and a new home! 8y
CocoReads @Wife I'm sorry to hear about your Reilly. Our last week one passed in Feb. so it's still pretty fresh. 8y
Bklover He's beautiful! Welcome to your new family member! 8y
Wife I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your dog as well. I read a book a few months after he died that really helped me. It demonstrates how strong love for a pet can be and how hard loss can be. It has a lot of humor, so I was laughing and crying throughout the read.

CocoReads Yes, I texted my daughter who was coming home this weekend a picture with the caption, meet your new brother. They are definitely part of the family. 8y
My_novel_obsession Congratulations! And a big hug and thanks to you and your family for taking in an older dog. 🤗😍 8y
CocoReads No one ever wants the old guys, and I don't have the time and patience for puppies so it works out great. 8y
rachellayown He's cute! 8y

It's my husbands birthday today. We don't do much for it but I did make him a chocolate cake and the magic ingredient is Guinness!

tricours Oh, that sounds interesting! 8y
sherryvdh That sounds delicious! 8y
CocoReads @tricours @sherryvdh it's delicious, moist and dense and I make a homemade cream cheese frosting for it. I only make it once or twice a year because I have a hard time staying out of it as well. 8y
