Why did my Guinness turn into a solid?

1.02K views

On St Patricks day I was having a Guinness. I also had a bottle of Baileys. Clearly somewhat inebriated I thought mixing some Baileys into my Guinness would surely create a remarkable sweet chocolate flavor. Instead, basically half the beer turned into a solid. I assume… it must have curdled? Why? How? What?

I do not know why… but recall a shot called the cement mixer did the same
It was Baileys and lime- is there citric acid or citrus in Guinness? 🤔

Familiar with a car bomb? Or, as the Irish call it, a depth charge? It’s a mixed shot of Baileys and Jameson dropped into a glass of Guiness. You can mix the Baileys and Jaym-o without any problem, but once the cream in the Baileys hits the beer it starts curdling due to the acid. That’s why it needs to be consumed quickly (a few seconds). And yes, it does create a remarkable sweet chocolate flavor!

But don’t ever try a cement mixer.

It’s actually a drink called an “Irish car bomb” you put a shot whiskey and a shot of Bailey’s in a half pint of Guinness and then drink it really fast. It’s awesome

That’s an Irish Csr Bomb and should be done in small amounts and drunk quickly to avoid curdling
