1. Despite its thick and hearty feel, Guinness has fewer calories than Budweiser. Not that we care!

2. At 4.2 percent, Guinness actually has less alcohol than most U.S. beers, which clock in at about 5 percent.

3. In Ireland they say a pint should be drained in seven swigs, leaving seven foam rings (laces) inside the glass. Hey, even hunched-over barflies need standards!
