Famous Dublin pub Oscars Bar hits back at low TripAdvisor review about their Guinness despite never serving it

A Dublin pub has furiously hit back at a TripAdvisor reviewer who left them a low-scoring review about their pint of Guinness - despite the bar never serving a pint of cream ever.

Oscars Bar in Smithfield blasted the reviewer after they questioned the amount of Guinness in the pipes because of the length it has to travel.

The reviewer said: "Had a Guinness here and was amazed to discover it has to travel at least two floors up from car park to tap in the pub.

"It still tasted okay [but] that's a lot of Guinness in the pipes at all times. Well done to Ronan, he always likes to be different and not a snowflake in sight."

The snowflake jibe was in reference to a job advertisement that the bar posted a few weeks ago which was applauded on live UK television by Piers Morgan.

Despite it being a low-scoring review, the person didn't really say anything negative but there was one small problem - the pub don't serve Guinness.

The pub's manager Ronan was quick to write back to catch the critic out saying: "What type of thundering buffoon are you?

"We do not serve Guinness and never have. So, how did the imaginary Guinness that we don't serve 'taste okay'?"

He added: "Of course our keg room is located directly underneath the bar. This is probably the case for 75% of bars in the country.

"With the keg room being directly underneath the bar counter, the beer line is surprisingly small just like your intellect. Gluk, Ronan."

We can't imagine the critic leaving a fake review again after that burn.
