The Guinness List
Beautifully Retro Guinness Poster/Ad Design
*Update: Added the Ottoman Lounge and The Garage*
I have wanted do this post for quite a while now but I didn’t have enough research, so I decided this might be as good as time as ever, seeing as it is St. Patrick’s Day and all. The post name is self-explanatory. Where in the city can you grab a delicious pint of Guinness? Well, as it turns out, only two places to my knowledge. Now, what I mean when I say “pint of Guinness”, I ain’t talking about from a can or something, I’m talking about on tap! This is also what I meant by research, I have only found it at two pubs/bars, but with that being said, it’s probably at some others. So if there is any other places that you guys/gals know, please comment so I can add them!
Original Joe’s
Not only does Original Joe’s have Guinness on tap, they also have a huge selection of other beers, house beers, and hybrid beers. View our review on Original Joe’s by Sean.
The Silver Buckle
This is one of my favourite pubs in the city. The laid back atmosphere, Dale’s Pizza attached to it, and Guinness – Combine those three things and you will have a full belly and a good night.
The Ottoman Lounge
One of the major players when it comes to live music and events when it comes to Medicine Hat has the delicious dark stout on tap.
The Garage
Mike tells us that The Garage (710 Gershaw Drive S.W.) is also a purveyor the dark liquid.
Honourable Mentions
This section is for mentioning the other bars and pubs in town that serve Guinness, but only from a can and/or bottle.
Dublin’s Pub
I know we have belabored this to death on Medicine Hat Media, but really, this pub should have Guinness on tap! Otherwise, Dublin’s Pub is near perfect. View the review by Sean and the entry for Dublin’s in the Best Restaurants of 2008 – Top 5 post.

Hey Vaughn, the Ottoman Lounge has Guinness on tap. I had some at another establishment you mentioned but it was not poured properly (it had no head and was extra bitter). I won’t mention the establishment because it may have just been my one drink and that would not be fair to them.
However, I have had many a Guinness at the Ottoman and they are always fantastic. I will also recommend the Jade Buddha, which is green and appropriate for today. It’s made with actual kiwi and ginger and is fantastic.

The Garage also has it on tap. I had a delicious pint of it yesterday topped delicately with a green food coloring clover.
