Guinness® Collectors Club

Chris Radek reports from........the USA!

I have been collecting Guinness beer glasses & items (and other glasses) since 1998 while residing in Dublin for 3 years.

No details provided.

Guinness enjoys pretty good popularity here in the North Atlanta suburbs. There are two Irish pubs that have pretty good crowds.

Not currently.

My local pub is called The Harp and located in Roswell, GA. It usually draws a pretty good crowd, but I can usually find a bar stool and have a good amount of Guinness. I know the owners pretty well as well as all of the bartenders, so I usually get a refill without having to ask. I also usually get the remote to one of the TV's to flip on either a soccer match or a Cubs baseball game.

Yes, usually the Guinness Toast as well as the St. Patrick's Day promotions. I've also seen Christmas and Halloween promotions.

To start with- I have a 10ft long bar x 6ft coming off of one of the walls. I have a Guinness beer sign, metallic signs and other memorabilia from my time in Dublin. I have about 30 Guiness glasses at this point (different pint styles, 6 Nations edition, Gilroy editions, etc...) as well as a total of over 300 glasses from different breweries worldwide.

My wife and I still own our flat in Donnybrook, Dublin and plan on moving back sometime in the hopefully near future.
