Smithwicks Pronunciation

I have been told by a bartender friend that when someone orders a "Smithwicks" they do not serve them due to the wrong pronunciation....Usually another customer has to "clue them in" on the pronunciation before this beer is served!

It is pronounced "Smiddicks", at least in the bars in the Midwest.

Aye, laddy.



And Hoegaarden is pronounced "who-garden."



Hue is pronounced "wheigh."



Thanks for an idea about a pronunciation page for The Beerman's site.

Yeah, the "w" doesn't get pronounced.



It's pretty good; very good for the price. Mix it half and half with Guiness for a change.

I'm Irish and can teel you yes. The 'w' is silent. You would pronounce it "Smith-ick's" not "Smit-icks' as the non Irish person here has suggested.

ROFL! I love all the troubleshooting ones. The hymn thing isn't that great though.

Exactly



I had it while in Ireland and enjoyed it too. Haven't had it in the US however.
