What is Pint-sized Ireland : In Search of the Perfect Guinness about?

<p>One man's tour of Ireland on tap; a rollicking travelogue in the tradition of <i>Round Ireland with a Fridge</i> and <i>McCarthy's Bar.</i></p> <p>"Regret" is the word that best describes Evan McHugh's first taste of Guinness. For an Australian raised on Vegemite, Ireland's black brew is very much an acquired taste. But the travel-writer is committed to acquiring it. Determined to discover exactly what makes a pint of Guinness so legendary, he crosses the Emerald Isle in search of his answers.</p> <p>But in sampling pints as he goes, McHugh soon realizes that in each town, and at every pub, someone always says that the best glass of Guinness is to be found . . . . somewhere else.</p> <p>In his comedic and sentimental journey, McHugh and his companion, Twidkiwodm (the-woman-he-didn't-know-he-would-one-day-marry), hitch around Ireland, meeting unforgettable characters. He goes rowing with a German bagpiper on the lakes of Killarney, windsurfing with a one-armed man in Dingle, survives an encounter with poteen and even finds his own bar . . . but keeps searching for the perfect pint.</p> <p>As entertaining as it is informative, <i>Pint-Sized Ireland</i> is both a hilarious travelog
