 * ... that 45 per cent of Guinness worldwide sales are of its Foreign Extra Stout?


 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is expanded many times from a tiny stub so meets qualifications. Is long enough. Is neutral, well sourced, considerable number of inline citations, without copyright violations or other problems. Significant parts of the article, and the hook, are from the PR Newswire, which absolutely wants the content to be copied in any event. Hook is short enough, properly formatted, interesting, neutral, accurate and has in-line citations. Checked editor contributions, which are quite numerous, but no previous DYKs so no QPQ needed. Image is Wikimedia Commons freely licensed and looks fine as a thumbnail. (I do like the beer.) This is ready to go as far as I am concerned. Donner60 (talk) 08:25, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Symbol delete vote.svg I'm seeing some overly close paraphrasing here. Compare for example "It was initially introduced into the Nigerian market through importation in the 40's" with "It was initially introduced into the Nigerian market through importation in the 1940s", or "The basic raw materials of maize and sorghum are sourced locally following the Nigerian Government’s ban on importation of malted barley in the late 1980s" with "The basic raw materials maize, sorghum are sourced locally following the Nigerian Government’s ban on importation of malted barley in the late 1980's".
