A pint of Guinness has weight-for reasons that have nothing to do with alcohol.
Pints and Power is a cultural memoir that explores how Guinness became a vessel for identity, ritual, and belonging across generations. Through personal journeys, historical reflection, and conversations with bartenders, musicians, and emigrants, Michael Villa traces the quiet power carried in a shared pour.
From Ireland to the diaspora, from joy to loss, from silence to song, this book reveals why Guinness remains more than a drink-and why the moments around it still matter.
For readers drawn to Ireland, memory, and the spaces where people gather, Pints and Power tells the story beneath the foam.
Because sometimes belonging isn't claimed. It's poured.
