| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 28, 2007 This by far is the best of the brewhouse series to date, pity they retired it, had a nice punchy raste and was lighter than Guinness, a good stout for after meals or long sessions BeerVirgin72 (820), Pataskala, Ohio, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 9/20 | Dec 7, 2006 I treid this beer in Ireland. I of course gave it a five for appearance, because there is nothing prettier than a poured Guinness! kreepindeth (405), Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 23, 2006 Draught in Dublin. Looks just like the classic Guinness. I could not detect any increase in hop aroma or bitterness. Didn’t taste quite as rich as the classic Guinness. KnutAlbert (3217), Oslo, Norway
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 3/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Oct 11, 2006 Draught in Dublin. Same apperance as the ordinary Guinness, but I cannot find any increased hoppiness. It appears more thin and watery, like a Guinness ligt. Most of the elements are there, but less of the roasted malt. A little sourness in the finish, maybe that was the extra hops? davidoc (113), Chicago, Illinois, USA

I had it on tap in many pubs in Dublin. tiggmtl (4311), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 21, 2006 Mild, herbal, light hop nose. Clear brown body with ruby highlights topped by a dense, fine bubbled, meringuelike, off white head that coats the glass and stands tall. Caramel malts, some chocolate and fair finishing bitterness. Much sweeter than the regular Guinness Draught but still has a very dry finish. Medium body with lively effervescence. Sampled on (nitro) tap at the Ha’penny Bridge Inn in Dublin (May-06).

Normal Guinness outlook: perfect pint. Mild aroma. This is like Guinness Draught but has less roasted malts and less hops. Smooth, good body. Sweeter than GD - something between dry and sweet stout. I had earlier today a pint of Guinness Draught at St John’s Gate as comparision.
