What is the favorite drink in Ireland? [br] [originaltext] Voice One: Mayo i

Voice One: Mayo is one of the wildest of Ireland’s counties. Its rolling hills and lonely bog land remain startlingly undeveloped, unpopulated and unspoiled. In many of the sleepy villages which dot the area, lite has changed little. And you’ll come across small communities where the ancient language Gaelic is still spoken.
    As well as a strong sense of tradition, everywhere you go in Mayo, you can’t help but notice the depth and significance of Ireland’s devout faith. While the church is the focus of spiritual life in Ireland, it’s the pub which is the focal point for life in the village.
    Voice Two: Ireland without pubs would be like Saudi Arabia without sand. In villages around Ireland, they wouldn’t have discotheques, cinemaplexes. So they come to the pub for their entertainment-the chat and the banter and the craic,
    "craic" meaning fun in Ireland.
    You’ll find in an Irish pub there’s always a welcome for you. That it be a stranger or a visitor or a local, they’re always full of chat and conversation.
    A pint of stout would be the most popular drink in Ireland. Um, it’s something that you have to acquke a taste for. but once you acquire it, it’s like fresh milk. You just...you’ll never forget the taste of it.
