Default Shank bore for Guinness

What shank bore would I need for Guinnessn 3/16 or 1/4? I would assume the most common 3/16 orifice would be alright. Would this shank bore be common for most beers except Coors ?

Default

Anymore 1/4" is the most common. Guinness will dispense out of a 3/16". There is not much carbonation in this beer. This is why there is a screen in the spout to break out the carbonation.
