Guinness Draught

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

On tap at Brit’s pub in Minneapolis June 17, 2009. Thick creamy head - lacing throughout finish. Flavorful, thin and very smooth. Highly drinkable and just a good beer - something different - Cheers!

IF BUD AND COORS AND ALL THAT CRAP IS BEER THAN GUINNESS MUST BE SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY, POURS SO DARK THAT YOU CANT EVEN SEE THROUGH IT WITH THICK CREAMY HEAD YET HAS LITTLE TO NO CARBONATION , TASTES LIKE FRESH COFFEE AND SLIGHTLY BURNT MALT, IVE HEARD THAT IT WAS ONCE ADVERTISED AS HAVING SUBSTANTIAL HEALTH BENIFITS , IM NOT SURE BUT I DO KNOW THIS IS THE SMOOTHEST BREW IVE EVER TASTED I CAN ONLY COMPARE IT TO CHOCLATE MILK, DELICIOUS!

great macro beer. beautiful appearence, dark beer with an off-white head. laceing coats glass very well. very refreshing for a black beer.

draught: too many drinks to remember what it tastes like exactly. chocolate smoky overtones. light body. good, widely available beer..

about time i rate this. rated from a50cl can bough at a music bar in crete, with the widget inside. black, large smooth head. aroma is roasted, and very mild. hard to snif anything. flavor is sweet, flowerty, roasted grains, sweet licorice, ends roasted.

One of the good mass-produced beers out there. Lives up to all the hype in my book. The appearance is a perfect dark color, with a rich creamy head that extends up quite a bit. Smells fantastic, and the flavor is rich and full of depth. I find the palate to have a great aftertaste and still retains a nice stiff bite at the end. Thicker, but not extremely filling. And of course, one of the best out of the can tastes there is.

I tried this beer from a can and from a draft and from a draft that served it colder in England. It’s just an all around good starter stout. It’s the easiest one to come across and has great flavor it pours a murky (and alive) black with a super thick creamy stout. Smell is of roasted malt. Taste is coffee and vanilla perfect when mixed with Jameson and baileys then it tastes like super rich chocolate milk.

Easily one of my favourite beers. Looks perfect, the head never quits, and smells excellent, chocolate and coffee sort of smell. Great smooth mouth feel, mellow flavour for a stout with slight bitterness, tastes great to me. Not as stomach filling, overpowering or bitter as most stouts, great for non stout converts. Best cold, but can be consumed at up to 15 degrees C easily. The only bad thing is the rock hard constipation that can occur if you drink too much of it. Don’t be a pussy lager fan, be a real man and give this brilliant brew a go.
