16. Now why ruin a perfectly good Guinness?
God I miss Guinness - I haven't had one for about 6 months, since I left the UK.

I'll have to get one this week or I'll go mad!

6. A and W makes the best
IMO. Your ice cream choice is excellent sir... I like mine slightly melted.

I also like making floats with strawberry pop (good stuff, not generic).

Some people do Coke floats. Bleeaahhhh!!

14. Yummm! To most all of the above!
Also good:

Vernors & vanilla ice cream ... some call it a Boston Cooler.

Root beer & chocolate ice cream ... tastes almost like a chocolate soda.
