Can you still ask for "a pint of beer" and expect to get Smithwicks?
No.
I like craft beers but I kinda feel like there is a bit of an upselling policy going on around here. Like can i have 'A'? yes sure, hey have you tried 'B'? Its like 'A' except a little more 'C'. And they always have an ornate beard. I've found going in and asking for 'beer, not too strong' kinda stops this happening. They don't give you smithwicks.
