SO HOW'D IT GO?

It's Irish! Use Guinness!

It's not vegan!

It's not even vegetarian!

I have not had Guinness in years but I know vegetarians who drink it. Why is it not vegetarian? vegan? I need to tell them to stop drinking it.

OH GROSS I just found out what they use to make the finished product of Guinness see below. I am going to email my friends.

?Guinness stout is made from water, barley, hops, brewer's yeast and is treated with isinglass finings made from fishes' air bladders  :fish: , although Guinness has claimed that this finings material is unlikely to remain in the finished product."

SO what stout if any can we use in this recipe??

I actually do this a lot. I skip the par-bake on the bottom crust and brush the inside of the bottom crust with an egg substitute before pouring in the filling. I also put a cookie sheet in the oven during the preheat and bake it on hot sheet for better color and texture. I usually add 20-ish extra minutes to bake time.

Hope you enjoy it!

would it be possible to make everything for this and then freeze the pie to cook for later? or would that ruin it?

I don't drink much beer... can anyone give me some tips on what to look for and/or recommend one?

I liked this a lot! I used a homemade crust that turned out really  dry & crumbly, due to operator error (too much hurrying/ not enough measuring!), but even with that difficulty the dish was still delicious... for leftovers, I topped the (unfortunately dry) top crust with Awesome Mushroom Gravy (from this site), & very nearly had to lick the bowl (ok, ok, I licked the bowl... but only when no one was looking). I will definitely make this again; I think the filling could make a great beefy-type stew, also, with a little more broth/ less thickening... Very nice flavors, especially with a heavy garlic- & pepper- seasoning hand. Yummy! Thanks for the recipe.
