Sep 13, 2009 Belize version courtesy of Mike D. Black body with tan head and a strong roasted aroma. A sweet lactic flavor with a strong roasted malt character and a bitter finish that lingers for minutes. Fantastic!

Aug 24, 2009 Had a nice aroma, not too strong. Had a nicer appearence than most bottle stouts too as it had a decent head. Tasted pretty good with a nice roasted, bitter finish. Stronger than regular Guinness but you wouldn’t really notice. An excellent bottled stout.

Aug 14, 2009 Roasted malt aroma. Black with off-white large head. Flavour opens sweetish, but turns quite bitter with caramel notes, a hint of vinegar. Medium bodied. Finishes vinegar. Warm sweetish alcohol and caramel aftertaste. I think I prefer ordinary Guinness to this.

Aug 8, 2009 Bottle at Cockney Pub, Århus
Black color; big head. Ordinary roasted malt aroma, mild; I give it a political 6. Good body structure, roasted malt flavor, maybe too much in the end, but overall quite balanced. Anyway, not impressive.

Aug 7, 2009 Bottle, but nothing beats a Guinness on tap when you can find it. This is one of my absolutely favourite beers. It’s got such a pleasing aroma, and it finishes wonderfully. It pairs well with everything from pizza to a filet mignon. And I will never get tired of watching the bubbles fall!

Jul 13, 2009 Can, best by 04/10, thanks to lithy. Pours black with brown edges and a fluffy beige head. The aroma is molasses, honey, ash, and lots of roastiness. The flavor starts off like burnt marshmallows. A pretty strong roasty and charred bitterness is in front, but a rather sweet note balances it. Molasses, toffee, and fireplace lingers in the background. The finish is intensely roasty, leaving an ashy aftertaste. Pretty good, and definitely better than I was expecting.
