People horrified after man served 'appalling' pints of Guinness worthy of 'prison sentence'

People have been left horrified after a Guinness reviewer shared a shocking snap of a pint their friend purchased whilst in the US.

Drinkers of the black stuff were baffled after viewing the pint that bore more resemblance to a 99 ice cream than Guinness.

Taking to Twitter, the Glasgow Guinness Man shared the image of the strange looking pint that had been ordered in Tennessee.

He said: "Mate of mine sent me this, he's in Tennessee right now. What da f**k is going on here?!"

The reviewer then explained that the odd pint was referred to by bar staff as a "nitro pint" - despite one punter pointing out that Guinness is exclusively served on nitrogen.

The "monstrosities" differed immensely from the typical pint of plain, which is served black with a creamy white head poured in two parts and left to settle.

Fuming Guinness fans flooded to the comment section to express their thoughts on the pints.

They said: "Thats actually probably enough for a prison sentence for the bar man.."

A second said: "What's going on with these pints of Guinness,outrageous!!"

While a third commented: "Having tasted Guinness in Tennessee, I can absolutely state, forget what it looks like, it tastes nothing like Guinness over there. Sewer water".

Other;s laughed at the pints uncanny resemblance to a 99.

They said: 'All its missing is a flake and some sprinkles".

"What on earths that ! Do you want a flake with that ?!", wrote a second.

Meanwhile, some suggested the reason for its strange appearance could be due to poor line maintenance.

They said: "I read somewhere that beer lines only get cleaned every 2 weeks in the US. So it's probably a combo of unclean lines and the cooler in the cellar not being at the right temperature Guinness needs to be extra cold".
