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

Bottle. Pours a deep black with a small darkish tan head that quickly disappears. Aromas of light toasted malt with hints of coffee. Very thin mouthfeel. Seems overly carbonated. Very subdued, lifeless flavor of toasted malt and light hops. Weak bitter finish with lingering coffee tastes. Just an OK beer. Greatly prefer the Draught version over this.

Pours dark with a creamy tan head. More flavor than guiness, particularly that of guinness. The only downside is a metallic after taste.

The aroma is dark, bitter and hoppy. The flavour is very bitter and metallic. In fact, it has a very overpowering metallic taste both while drinking and afterwards. The texture is pretty thin. It’s a good stout, but it’s not the best.

Pours as dark as CocaCola. I have to say I love love love the flavor of this beer, but cant stand the aftertaste. It is at times unbearably burnt bitter tastng, but then again I’ve drank a few that went down perfectly smooth. The ones I’ve drank that had a smooth aftertaste I would rate a perfect 5.

Can’t believe I’ve never gotten around to drinking this before. Bomber or so sized bottle. Pours dark brown/light black with a light brown head. Aroma is that Guinness smell - roasty, bitter, chocolate with the chocolate being more pronounced. Taste is dry, creamy, watery, roasty, with a bitter chocolate finish. More flavorful and better than regular Guinness. Still, there are plenty of other stouts/dry stouts I would get over this.

Very decent beer for those who want something thick but not sweet, and dont want to pay an arm and a leg for it. Compares with beers twice its price. You cannot see through the glass that this is in. Bright white foamy head.

Aroma and flavor have hints of molasses with a little nuttiness underlying. Definitely has more oomph than the draft, taste-wise. It’s Guinness, what the hell more can you say? You’ve tasted it! We’ve all tasted it! Now to find some export versions...
