BRITISH tourists are in a black mood — as pubs in Majorca run out of draught Guinness.

Barrels of the stout are in short supply, much to the dismay of those on holiday.

Sunseeker Geoff Edwards, 47, of Portsmouth, said: “All the busier Irish pubs I’ve tried are out.

“We’re here another week so hopefully the suppliers get their finger out or I won’t be happy.”

Sonia Rioja Brennan, who owns the Dubliner Bar and Brennan’s, said: “I sell 15 kegs a week in both bars and ran out a week ago.

“More than the money aspect, it’s a reputation thing.

“How can an Irish pub not sell Guinness on tap?”

Eduardo, the manager of All Blacks Irish Pub in Torremolinos, told The Sun: “We’re really low on Guinness at the moment. I haven’t got enough to reach the end of the week.

“We sell Murphy’s too but it’s not the same.

“I know I’m going to have a lot of unhappy customers if the problem doesn’t get fixed soon.”

Pubs as far away as Canada have reported running out in what appears to be a global shortage.

Heineken, which supplies Guinness in Spain, said demand across Europe had exceeded forecasts.

Part of the reason for the sales boom is the Splitting the G game in which drinkers try to sip a pint to exactly halfway down the G of Guinness printed on the glass.

I work in a bar, there’s one drink order we all hate because it takes so long – it happens every shift too
