How To Make A Guinness Old Fashioned With Irish Whiskey

from Man Cave Happy Hour · host Man Cave Happy Hour

Send us Fan MailA Guinness Old Fashioned sounds like something you order on a dare, but we decided to build it like it deserves respect. We mix Irish whiskey with Guinness, Demerara syrup, and molasses bitters, then taste it honestly: does it drink like a real Old Fashioned, or does stout steamroll everything in the glass? If you’ve ever searched for a St Patrick’s Day cocktail, an Irish whiskey cocktail recipe, or a new way to use Guinness at home, this one will spark opinions fast.Detroit is the backdrop the whole way through. We recap parade day strategy, the unofficial rules of bouncing between bars, and why St Patrick’s Day proper isn’t always the heaviest drinking day. We also get into local traditions like the Nain Rouge, plus the everyday chaos of social media changes and the kind of teaching stories that make you wonder how schools function at all.Then we pour something we actually savor: Redbreast Lustau Edition, finished in sherry casks. We dig into tasting notes like dark fruit, marzipan, spice, and oak, and talk about how sherry cask finishing can make Irish whiskey feel deeper without turning it into something unrecognizable. And because we can’t resist, we toss out trivia to test who’s really listening, from Madonna chart history to a wild Detroit fact that stops the room.If you like whiskey tasting, Detroit stories, and the kind of conversation that wanders from cocktails to culture without losing the thread, hit play.
