Manchester’s iconic Irish bar O’Malleys is giving Guinness lovers the ultimate opportunity to secure a year’s supply of the famous Irish stout this Father’s Day weekend.
The popular city centre venue is hosting a high-stakes pint-pouring challenge on Sunday 21st June 2026, running from 4 pm until 8 pm, where patrons can step directly behind the bar to test their skills.
To participate in the contest, amateur bartenders simply need to document their attempt by uploading a photograph or a short video clip of their final creation to social media, making sure to tag the official handle @omalleysmanchester.
The individual judged to have poured the most visually spectacular, structurally sound pint of the afternoon will walk away with a complimentary year-long supply of the beverage at the venue.
Full terms and conditions regarding the prize limitations and redemption schedules are set to be published on the venue’s official Instagram page ahead of the event.
Printing Family Memories Onto Stout Foam with Cutting-Edge Technology

Alongside the main competitive element, the venue has arranged an additional high-tech surprise for families looking to treat their parents to a memorable afternoon out.
Patrons will have the chance to utilise the pub’s specialised Stoutie machine, which uses advanced printing technology to replicate family photos directly onto the creamy head of a freshly poured pint.
The event is designed to welcome absolutely everyone, meaning customers can head down to cheer on their dads, celebrate the occasion with family, or simply back their own technical mastery of the classic two-part pour.
