Guinness Draught

Brewed by St. James’s Gate (Diageo)
Style: Dry Stout
Dublin, Ireland

Guinness is the beer that I wish I could give a 20 for appearance. When they put that cascading beauty in front of me I could watch it for hours if I didn’t want to drink it so badly. It pours a deep brown color and cascades like a waterfall. Thick creamy head with coffee and chocolate in both the aroma and taste. Very smooth mouthfeel and goes down without effort. My only knock is that it could use a bit deeper flavor to it but overall this is a classic beer.

How can anyone not love Guinness it is the best and u must love that frothy head and the long bitterness and lets forget guinness is good for u and nicely filling mmmmmmmmmmmm

Can. Pours black with a gorgeous, thick, tan head that lasts and lasts. The cascade of fine bubbles down the side of the glass is entrancing. Aroma of mild roasty malt. Taste is similar, with some coffee and just enough bitterness to balance it out. Finishes nice and dry, with some bitterness. Palate is velvety from the fine carbonation. I know there are lots of stouts with more flavor, but Guinness is a wonderfully balanced and satisfying beer. It’s rich, but not overpowering. Some complain about how full it makes them; I can drink this all night. Probably my favorite mass produced beer.

Ahhh the staple. I really don’t think there is a better looking pint. It just looks magnificent. Beautiful frothy tan head, malt smell and the taste of malt and some bitter. I can say though after having one in Europe, they taste better on draught in Europe than anywhere in North America. One day I’ll have one in Ireland.

from tap @Irish pub in Bruges, black colour and very creamy white head. Smell: malty. Taste: bitter, watery, roasted malts and refreshing beer.

On tap at the local pub / fish & burger joint, the way a Guinness should be enjoyed. It is truly a beautiful beer to behold. Taste, very pleasant but nothing sharp to really stand out. Well balanced, roasty with a nice creamy head. I always enjoy walking into a new place and seeing Guinness on tap. You know you’ve got that going for you, in case they don’t have any truly unique beers.

Draught at Oleary’s Visby. Pours as beautiful as the pic in the upper left corner. It is more malty and bigger than I expected. I have written it down on beforehand since I havent had it since I got geeky with my drinking...

The stout from which all others are compared. The biggest problem with Guinness is how full it makes you, it’s a meal replacement in a bottle.
