Guinness

The book tells the story of a truly global brand that's more than just a beer. Today, Guinness is accepted everywhere it trades because it employs local people, uses local resources, adapts to local tastes, advertises with local relevance and reverence as well as giving people a product they can enjoy and relax with. All are factors that combine to give a modern meaning to the 75-year old gone-but-not-forgotten advertising slogan, "Guinness is good for you". Does it really taste better in Ireland, its spiritual home? For those who want to get to the bottom of the glass, this book of stories reveals the answer to this and provides fascinating insights into a brand that has inspired warmth in drinkers and non-drinkers alike for a quarter of a millennium.
