Guinness Extra Stout (North America)

Brewed by Labatt Breweries (InBev)
Style: Dry Stout
London, Canada

Bottle, pours dark, wonderful frothy head that lasts. Very dry, slightly bitter or acidic, burnt roasted flavor, malty. Very smooth, good for cold weather.

Big bottle. Poures black. Taste of caramel and coffe. expected much more from this beer. Very nice though

Extra Stout Is not As EXTRA as i expected. Slight bitter after taste. Still good when ice cold.

Nice dark brown with light tan head. This beer, eventhough much more mainstream that some, stil holds it’s own. I thoroughly enjoy this beer’s roasty flavor.

Guinness Extra Stout is a great beer to drink anytime, although I prefer the Draught. One of the most common dark beers sold in the US. Good stuff.

12oz bottle. Liquorice, dry malt, light coffee and lactose on the nose. Pours dark brown with a thin khaki head. Quite dry and bitter on the tongue. Lots of bitter and roasted malt. Some vanilla, dry oak. Lots of "roasty" notes. Medium bodied with good carbonation.

Pours black. With a thick brown head. Aroma is malty with coffee and caramel notes. Tastes roasted with strong coffee flavor and a little hop bite at the end.

Smell is rather non-descript - a bit lagery with a touch of malt. Smells more hoppy as it warms. Damn fine head on this one - very thick and velvety, with a dark complexion. Initially a bit thin in the body, but the carbonation takes hold upon entry and thickens the brew considerably. Flavor starts a good bit tart, then finishes both roasty and hoppy. Quite dry. Sort of reminds me of midwestern dark ales. This brew is nothing special but decent nonetheless. I do, however, prefer the Draught.
