Default Any Guinness drinkers here? Where should I go?

I just moved here last month. I am a serious Guinness snob and need to know where I can go in The Villages to find a truly great Guinness pour (i.e. on draft, proper nitrogen/carbon dioxide mixture, proper pouring procedure, and of course a Guinness gravity glass for serving). World of Beer is the closest I have found, but are there any other places inside or outside the bubble serving Guinness like it is supposed to be served?

I actually have a home kegerator setup here with N2 and CO2 feeds to a gas blender that produces the best Guinness pour yet, but I want to GO OUT and have something at least as good as I can make at home. Surely there are some others here that love Guinness as much as I do! Where do you go? Maybe there should be a club for Guinness lovers.

A few of the country club bars serve Guiness on tap. I suggest you give them a call and ask.

Cody's Lake Sumter has it on tap. If not drink it from a can, never a bottle. I never remember any CC having Guinness.

You will not find good Guinness in TV. Maybe New York or Chicago or an Irish pub in Orlando. Best Guinness is in Ireland on tap. In order for Guinness to be good you have to serve a lot of it. It cannot sit in the barrel otherwise it gets acidic. We have two pubs in the family in the auld sod

I don’t know about “good” Guiness, but it’s on tap at the country club bars of Palmer, Orange Blossom, Bonifay, Belle Glade, and perhaps Evans Prairie
