drinking in Belfast's roughest pubs! 

That ad was mega 👏👏👏

🤣 cheers pal

Because Murphy's is shit 😅

Do you even get Murphy's on pump anywhere in Belfast? I thought it was more a Southern, or specifically Cork thing. I know a lot of people see Guinness as the embodiment of Irishness, but in reality, wasn't Arthur Anglo-Irish and very prejudiced against the native Dublin Irish Catholics. I think you couldn't work at Guinness if you were Catholic until maybe the 1960s.. in fact, I think you even got sacked if you were a Protestant who married a Catholic.

@@samwallace7313 Except it’s not. At all.

You would even struggle to find Murphy's on tap in Dublin. It's more of a Cork/Kerry thing. Lovely stout though.

@@blackcats3951 each to their own tbh, I don't like it others do.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂 nailed

But unlike Carl , he ain't obsessed with splitting the "G" Whatever the Fuck that is 🤔🤔🤔

​@@Theoriginalbigbrilloclues in the name pal. Play a record, you're an idiot

​@Theoriginalbigbrillo splitting the g is taking a huge first gulp so that the remaining pint lines up up in the middle of the g on the glass

.....following tradition 🤣

Very good, I missed that oxymoron or just an ironic moron lol

Spot on to be fair

@@user-uh2qz1ec5m Stupid to be fair

True mate, very chilled vibe, loved it

Just hope and pray you get over , ever deciding to settle in Yorkshire 🤭🤭🤭

You always miss that when you leave Ireland. Something is missing, it's a hole that wells up in the soul.

Facts!. 99.9% of people are great decent hard working caring people. im from the falls. Like most political conflicts it all started from bronze-age god beliefs that have festered through every country in the world. these then became political and powe rbased. the science age is slowly changing things. I grew up catholic like someone who grew up on the shankill protestant. im 41 but the younger ones on both sides grow up able to think for themselves and realise that theres no difference. we are all just humans. Thanks for coming to belfast!!

@@joshuahowie1863 English chap here. Been to Belfast a fair few times now, usually make a point of going every year for 9 days plus. Have literally walked/staggered the length and breadth of the city, and can honestly say I've done pubs and clubs from Andersontown to East Belfast and the far north of the city right down to Ballynafeigh. Never had any grief whatsoever. I love the warm hospitable people who make me feel welcome, and I've met my fair share of fantastic chaps from both sides of the "fence". Like most places I guess if you avoid being a tw@t you'll live to tell the tale!

@@BelfastManUtdTherapyI have relatives in Derry and have passed through Belfast many times on my way there after travelling over from Liverpool on the boat. I will make a point of stopping in Belfast next time. Good post but must admit i'm not too keen on your profile name. Lol.

@@first4wins192i take it your a liverpool fan then lol its all good. Honestly you should stop in belfast sometime on your travels and do a pub crawl. belfast is a different place now than it used to be 20-30 years ago!

As a Catholic just in the southern side of the border, i think if I went into any of the bars in the shankhill road I'd not feel particularly safe with my accent, but that's not me being prejudice as I'm honestly not. But I know if a Protestant went into a Catholic bar they'd feel the exact same. Which is a shame as end of day we are all just the same people when you take religion and politics out of it. I don't see things changing anytime soon though unfortunately as you have idiots on both sides who continue to keep that hatred and bigotry alive.

100% true mate

The Crown is great 4 the decor, done by Italian joiners when moonlighting but overrated pub, Duke of York and whites tavern far better

we are great. lol its just some support liverpool still..... oj the past is behind us, belfast is on the up!

@@BelfastManUtdTherapy Agreed.................................👍👍👍

If I was in the Crown right now, I think Bass from cask would be my choice.

Twelve hour days (ma baws) working in the shipyards…

Just a small correction it’s Upper Newtownards Road.

@@stewartgrindlay9760 Thanks! So long ago! Still good stay at the Girton Lodge Hotel ?

@@senianns9522 excellent. What year where you here

@@stewartgrindlay9760 1976 --Did a job at Fison's chemical plant I think?

Cheers pal, really appreciate it

🤣🤣🤣 bangin that....go on!

Same here!

It's a load of shite started by the Guinness Guru who in fact isn't even a Guinness drinker

Played that in the ship inn Anglesey last Saturday lol. I've never quite got it

@@danbreen6946 known people doing it for years before guru

Mental back in the day init

@@honestplaces they riddled the rex with automatic gunfire that day was a fair few killed during that feud army had to patrol area again and people walking about with bullet proof vests on hundreds of people removed from their homes when it kicks off on Shankill it kicks off lol. Have drank in all of those pubs at some stage apart from the pony club dunno if its still there but the berlin bar was another one id go to the odd time.

@@kennymitchell4361 Berlin bar is shut now pal.

I wouldn't advise it, especially with your giveaway accent

Proper consistent over there init!

@@honestplaces They're consistent because Guinness has a team of people that clean the lines, calibrate the nitrogen taps & train bartenders how to do it properly. Also more people drink it so it's fresh.

Pour a bad pint of stout & you might as well shut down the shop ?

@@honestplaces Yes next time you need to hit uo Bangor and call into Fealtys. The pub hasn't had room in the cold room for the Guinness line, so the keg is under the bar and pours slow. Bullhouse East a craft beer ta\proom in Belfast, did have Beamish for a while. Hard to find, Murphys even harder.

no one drinks Guinness at room temperature. End of.

Cheers pal, really appreciate it 👍

Yeh mate, act fine you'll be treated fine 👍

@@ManannanmacLir69 what songs did he sing Brother 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

@@alanholgate3442 I have no recordings but he wasn't political apparently. He did however claim to be a reincarnated German soldier and they had a piss up for him when he died in the Berlin bar. So guessing in the genre of that great German song Erika maybe?

@@alanholgate3442he sang tunes like “come out ye Black and Tans” and “go on home British soldiers” …a few like that. He was brilliant, they loved him in the shankhill

​@@meandu2-fh8jr Lol 😂

Cheers pal, really appreciate it 👍

It was built by Italian carpenters moonlighting whilst they were here building St Patrick's Chapel/ Church, donegall Street, approx 1.5 miles away

It's also just across from the europa Hotel.. it was the most bombed hotel in Europe at 1 time 😊

Yeh i felt chilled there pal. Alright init

@@honestplaces Yes mate, they are top notch, we have lost that community spirit.

are they welcoming of Catholics and those with Irish accents?

@@shutup2751about as welcoming as the catholics would be to proddies on the falls road or Andy town. Fuck off prick.

It's called the heel and ankle

plenty of Beamish in Dublin but yes limerick and cork would be best place for beamish

Murphy’s is made in cork aye

Is a bangin place

Cheers pal. I did go there mate, pukka!

@honestplaces Great Guinness there isn't there mate? 😊👍

Get yourself down there! Cheers pal

The name Shankill comes from the original Irish word Seanchille which means "old church"

@@ciderman1888 That makes perfect sense then

kill in this context comes from cill which is the irish for church. you will find it a lot in irish place names .shankill litreally means old church

Titanic was back when i went

Wasn't that bad 🤣

Why? he's be more then welcome back

Had his bodyguard with him 😅

@@kevym8985 why is the man brave? It's probably the friendliest chillest city to visit on these isles. I got lost in the Falls on my second visit (I was steaming) and got helped to a McDonald's then the bus by some kind stranger. Always end up meeting chill people and having a good time when I go over. Only ever had one bit of aggro when I refused to buy some skank a drink on the Shankill...and that was quickly resolved.

@@honestplaces dont lie

Been before! Bangin

Yeh 100% pal 👍🍺

Did you know in Canada Guinness is actually Labatt's Base beer with a ingredient mix to turn it into Guinness? Imagine how shite that must be.

Cheers pal

Yeh....need to!

It is what it is 🍺
