On tap. Color is black and it had a nice medium chocolaty creamy head. Gorgous look. Roasty aroma. Taste is chocolate, roasty and coffee. Don’t want to repete all that has been said. Its a great beer that you can find almost everywhere. When you can’t find any good beer, you know that Guinness will almost always be there to save you ! Rating #55

I can detect a slight milk chocolate smell and having difficulty identifying anything else. Pours similar but not the same as the colors on the bottle, an off black color with an amber hue and a beige frothy head and no carb action. Moderately acidic and lightly bitter coffee and chocolate malt taste with some bland resin and orange hops flavor. Medium bodied, dry almost creamy texture, no carbonation, and lightly metallic and moderately astringent finish. Nothing to this I would rather have the Black Hart from TJs.

Absolutely hated this beer; had the texture of milk and I couldn’t finish it. I was very surprised as I normally prefer dark beers.

Kinda a funny beer to write about....what can I say that hasn’t already been said.....no surprises here. I think the most remarkable thing about guinness is how versitile it is. A beautiful looking, flavorful beer that can be easily consumed all night. It’s amazingly reliable too - you can find almost everywhere all over the planet - I’ve never been dissapointed. Matter of fact, I think I may just go have a couple right now - all this talk is makin me thirsty!

33cl, can. Incredibly good looking, pitch black beer with a thick head. Aromas of coffee and toffee, generally speaking - roasted malt. Very light taste, maybe some nut and toffee too, thin mouthfeel. It’s better to try Guinness Extra Stout, this here is nothing special at all.

Guinness is always very tasty. It has a very mild flavor. It is watery as many people say. It goes down easy, and you can drink it all night.
