I LOVE GUINNESS. MAYBE NOT THE BEST BEER IN THE WORLD BUT A PERFECTLY POURED GUINNESS IS A WORK OF ART.

Overall Impression: I’ve always thought this beers reputation was above its taste, plus it has too low an ABV

Nitro bottle. Typical Guinness black pour with a thick, foamy, tan head. Soft roast aroma with some faint chocolate and coffee undertones. There is also a slight sourness to the aroma as well. The flavor is of course very subdued by the nitrogen. Muted roasted malt with some slight chocolate. The flavor is quite watery. Body is smooth and creamy but much to watery and thin.

When its fresh on draft and fresh, its pretty decent. Coffee and light creaminess with a roasted malt undertone. It is a bit too thin and lacks flavor, but Its not bad.

Pours dark brown with light tan head. The aromas are simple yet strong, with coffee, roasted malt and dark chocolate all powerful on the nose, with a hint of spice. The texture is a little on the watery side, as is the flavour. Coffee and roasted malt dominate with a subtle biscuity flavour which adds a bit of body, but not much. A classic stout.

Pub can - pours black with creamy off-white nitrogen head. Always loved the visual of the downward cascading bubbles. Light, dry, roasted barley nose. Flavor is similarly light and very dry, with a pronounced coffee finish. Mouthfeel is creamy but not overly thick. Not a favorite stout by far, but not bad, and can be the perfect thing when drawn by a skilled barman at an appropriately Irish establishment.

Can. Pours a solid black with the beautiful Guinness head. The aroma isn’t as powerful as some, but there is some roasted barley and maybe a hint of coffee. A very fine carbonation with a very creamy mouthfeel. The feel can definitely throw people off if they have never had a beer of this nature before (i.e. mass produced crap). The palate follows the nose, with notes of roasted barley, a little coffee, and surprisingly light. Gentle bitterness and a definite dry quality. This one is famous and rightly so. Solid, not very complex, but the perfect gateway into better beer drinking.
