Not much to say about this one. I was never a fan of this when it was the hipster craze. Not that I tried it again, I can see why I wasn’t a fan. No real armoa, but hints of barley and malt. Flavor is watery and thing, but some grain and sugar floating around. Faint hops, and a oaty after taste. Not terrible, just nothing special. A beginner’s craft beer. Nothing wrong with that.

Like taking the tap with you. Draught can be enjoyed anywhere. Much better than the stout. Delicious.

Come on.... it’s guinness. At the moment I am drinking it out of the bottle which is less pleasant that on tap or from the can. I dont feel like repeating what is well known so ill sum it up in one sentence: It’s dark and heavy but light, slightly bitter but creamy, and delicious.

Poured from the pint-sized can. Poured the usual (but wonderful) cascading tan head until it was dark brown with a solid tan head that stays around for the long-haul. Smell is chocolatety with perhaps a hint of coffee. The mouthfeel is heavy with a strong coffee and chocolate aroma even before swallowing. It finishes with a solid aftertaste of the same and is very drinkable.

Thick and unique, this is one of a kind IF you get the right pour (C02 ratio) or if you pour yourself from the can. Thick, black pour with a perfect tan head, caramel, chocolate, smooth as it gets; this is liquid dessert.

Can. Earthy, dark roast aroma. Wonderfully thick, creamy tan head leaves great lacing. Flavor is dark espresso w/ a slight hint of peaty smoke, but finishes dry. Creamy palate w/ a slight metallic mouthfeel at the end.

A surprisingly smooth dark beer leaving no bitter aftertaste. This is surely a classic that any beer drinker would like, even if you arent a fan of the dark kind. A must taste!

A classic beer, pours black with a creamy head. Light malt aroma. Thick and creamy roasted malt flavor. Slightly milky and metallic finish, but still smooth. Hard to beat a good guinness.
