Charles plays barman and pulls the ‘perfect’ pint of Guinness
King Charles III marked the launch of the £73 million Guinness brewery and visitor site by pouring a 'perfect' pint, supporting hospitality during the festive season.
- On Thursday, King Charles III pulled a praised pint while opening the Guinness Open Gate Brewery London in Covent Garden, attracting media attention.
- Coming after the King's recent `good news` cancer update, Diageo's Nik Jhangiani said the visit marked the launch of a 73m Guinness Open Gate Brewery London project.
- Guided by Leo Ravina, the King held the glass at a 45 degree angle, stopped at three quarters, and let it settle for 60 to 70 seconds, finishing with `Merry Christmas` printing.
- Outside the event, Charles sampled beers from the microbrewery in the building's basement including a porter, a winter warmer and an apricot sour, which he said did not taste like a beer, and surprised shoppers with a Merry Christmas and a foamy Guinness moustache.
- Unite union members at Diageo's Belfast packaging plant rejected a pay offer and around 90 workers will strike for eight days from Friday, though Diageo said supply would not be affected.
