Waterford Man Mark Zuckerberg Takes One Sip of Guinness and It Does Not Go Well

The clip drew more than 5 million views as Zuckerberg struggled to finish the Guinness and kept a poker face.

  • During an appearance on John Collison's 'Cheeky Pint' podcast, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg went viral for his awkward reaction to a pint of Guinness.
  • Zuckerberg and Meta Chief of AI Alexander Wang appeared to discuss the company's new 'Muse Wonder' AI model, though the stout-drinking moment quickly overshadowed the technical discussion.
  • Viewers mocked the billionaire's reaction, with one Reddit user joking, 'Never seen someone try and chew a Guinness,' while a drink tally showed Zuckerberg finished 1.4 pints during the two-hour episode.
  • The viral moment coincides with reports that Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, acquired historic Strancally Castle in County Waterford, Ireland, for €51,171,155.
  • While the podcast clip and castle purchase remain separate stories, their concurrent appearance in the news cycle illustrates the contrast between Zuckerberg's viral public moments and his significant investments in Ireland.
