Commercial Description:
Labatt's brew a pale ale base to which is added the unfermented but hopped Guinness wort extract. Guinness Extra Stout is brewed in Canada by Labatt under license from Arthur Guinness Son & Company. Editor's Note: It looks like Moosehead is also brewing Guinness. Bottles in the US are from there of late, but Canadian bottles are still showing Labatt. 04/23/06

12 oz bottle. Poured a dark brown color with a one finger tan head. The aroma was roasted malt, coffee and a hint of baker’s chocolate. The flavor was mainly roasted malt, but hints of coffee, nuts and dark fruits are present. The finish is very sweet.

Bottle. Poured a dark black with a two finger brown head. Aroma and flavor were roasty, and the flavor was caramel malt.

Pours a deep dark color with a decent tan head that laces the glass nicely. Aroma is a little malty and coffeeish. Flavor is mostly just bitter, though the roasted malts are somewhat noticeable. Considering all of the better available stouts out there, I didn’t care much for this.

I’m not sure if this is the right one, this is brewed in New Brunswick, Canada. Minimal roasted malt and a hint of molasses and caramel smell with a minimal aroma of coffee and maybe dark chocolate. Some citrus esters in the hop aroma. Pours a black coffee color with a hint of an amber hue. The tannish and fizzy head dissipated within minutes, there was some sediment in the bottle. Lightly sweet, acidic, and bitter roasted/burnt malt taste with flavors of dark chocolate and coffee. There are some esters in the hops flavor such as maybe orange. Full bodied, almost creamy and slightly resinous texture, soft almost flat carbonation, and a metallic and slightly astringent finish. This is drinkable, has a slight sour astringency.

Bottle. Not nearly as satisfying to me as a Gunness Draught from a widget can or on tap. It is an OK stout but there are so many better options.

not good. Thin, watery, only real flavor is the astringent acidic aftertaste.
