Urban Legend check: Is Guinness a Good Source of Iron?
by Elonka at 2:15 pm EDT, Aug 22, 2005

Iron content of various foods/drinks
1 pint of guinness 0.3mg
The RDA (recommended daily allowance) of iron for men is 11mg and 14mg for women.

In a word: No. Though if someone really wants to drink 30 pints a day to get their RDA, that's up to them. ;)
