One last dry beer Saturday for 2023!

Finish line in sight

The finish line is finally in sight for my Dry January and I must admit I am pretty proud to have ditched the drink for a full month. When I do drink, to be fair I rarely drink to excess, but I do enjoy a couple of beers with a match or a few nice glasses of Rioja on a Friday night after a busy week at work, so I am looking forward to Wednesday when the 1st of February will be upon us. Now I may not necessarily have a few beers that night, although I might! I will definitely be going for a few this weekend though, a few nice big creamy pints of Guinness and with that in mind, I'll dedicate this post to some nice looking pints of Guinness at pubs and hotels and some nice home poured pints of Guinness at home.

For those who have not been reading my recent posts, I am on Day 28 of my Dry January and going well. I was out for a Gig on December 29th and that's the last time I had a drink, which you guessed it was a few creamy pints of Arthur's finest black stuff. Some of you might be wondering what exactly dry January is?

Dry January is something people in Ireland sometimes do after the festive season where there are many parties and nights out and this year I said I would give Dry January a go myself for the shits and giggles.

Photos of Pints

As promised here are some photos of pints of the black stuff:

What's In The Fridge?

Plenty of options left over from Christmas and I might add some more IPAs if I remember in the next few days.

Guinness is certainly a drink for many occasions. Good for you for going through the month without!

Thanks man, most weeks I'd have a few pints or a glass of wine, so it feels good going a full month without any. I might even make it an annual thing unless I get invited to a party or a wedding or the likes!

Beer? I almost forgot the taste 😂. Been years since the last time I got drunk..

You must have had kids?? 😂

You'll rediscover the taste some day.

Just got married so I did stop drinking like , yeah I was done 🤣

That could drive some men to more drink depending on the wife! 😋

Yoooo - more !BEER is welcome

Have a great Guinness weekend

Thanks a lot, can't wait for Wednesday!

Ditching drinks for a full month is an achievement worth telling haha. I don't think I can these days but because now I live in a dry place, it'll take a while for me to stack up some beer. Just last Saturday I actually had Guinness and it was amazing! 2 more weeks and I'll be getting more :D
