The classic stout (though not necessarily the best one). Looks good when poured well- creamy, thick and black. Creamy, dry and bitter with hints of coffee and a rather chocolaty aroma. Can be sweet if poured in a certain way. Usually has a bitter finish. Also a bit filling.

12 oz. Bottle. Guinness is the beer I go to when I want something flavorful but not overpowering. It has a lot of flavor but the great taste doesn’t linger in your mouth once you finish it. Great beer to have on hand when you can’t decide what else to drink. Pours great, smells great, and tastes great. Recommended.

Thank goodness it’s a Guinness. Super smooth, amazing good looks... pours like a photo shoot every time. Nice roasty flavor, some hints of coffee. Slightly bitter finish when it warms up a little. One of my favorites.

There is nothing to say about the appearance of a properly-poured pint of Guinness. It looks gorgeous, and I enjoy the aroma, which like the taste is dominated by chocolate and coffee. Not incredibly complex or special, but earns this high rating for its drinkability.

This is a very good Irish draught, which you need to taste when you go to an english or irish pub. The beer is pretty dry, with a strong taste, and a keeping aftertouch.

If this isn’t the best looking beer in the world, I don’t know what is! By far the coolest pour, visually the most enticing and the taste follows suit. Creamy, full bodied, well balanced. Truly righteous.
