They definitely sell Guinness at the goal line bar south stand.

Although I’m pretty sure it’s poured from a can

Is it one of those cans they put on a shaker. Seen them in a few pubs. Not great but better than some pubs that poor from a tap especially if it's the first pint off (that should be thrown away).

No literally a can they hand pour in to your glass (well plastic)

I recall reading that Guinness isn't compatible with the quick-bottom-up-pour machines they're using.
Yeah, Guinness definitely wouldn't work on those. The key to a good pint is how its poured.
I'd be surprised if they didn't have any on tap somewhere though, it's an extremely popular bevvie.
My go to pint if there aren't any decent beers available (I cannot, and will not, drink Fosters, Carling and the like).

Amstel is lovely

I love that, amid all the tension and excitement of tonight, some are still holding on to what's really important in life. Getting their favourite pint. (y):)
I saw Guinness on a sign on one of the Tap Inns above the Marketplace. Trouble is it may be cans.

I was up north recently and had that. Was a bit sceptical at first, but it was surprisingly good.

They've got the Beavertown beers in all bars - otherwise give the Dispensary a try if you can't find it elsewhere. I'm fairly sure the Goal Line bar had it, but it was chaos down there so didn't really pay much attention

I’ve always wondered whether the whole Guiness ‘wait two minutes for it to settle’ was all a big marketing gimmick.

I once asked a bartender to fill it straight to the top, and she looked at me like I’d just insulted her mum. But I swear it tasted exactly the same...

I really want to sample some of the Beavertown stuff. Hope they have a variety of strengths because apart from Guinness, I like my pint to be in the 5% region.

It will taste a little bit different but it will look bad with the head more brown and bubbles in it.

Both Gammaray (my favourite) and Neck Oil are 5%+ - then I think they've got Black Betty in cans which is a Black IPA at 7.4%

From an American fan who’s been following this thread for many years, I just want to say Welcome Home to all of you lucky enough to see this stadium in person. And for those of us who can’t be there, it’s still exciting to see just how much our club has grown. After all of these years of waiting, the day is finally here!
