With little to no head and served in an unmarked glass the Guinness said to be poured at the Griffin Belle in Vauxhall, south London, hit a solid zero out of ten.
The pint cost £7.20.

The £6.20 pint had an overwhelming head and was a reminder to go to the venue for the darts and not the Guinness.
Two £5.50 Guinnesses reportedly poured at The Duke on Wood Street, east London, were served with little to no head.
The Guinness poured at the Strangers Bar at the House of Commons only cost £3.70.
Despite the refreshing price, the pint was once again disappointing, he said.
Other Guinness lovers pitched in with their own thoughts on the pints on display.
One stated: “That is a sin against everything right in this world.”
Another said: “You’d simply refuse to pay for it.”
One other said: “That truly is dreadful.”
