Lagunitasfan (322), San Diego, California, USA Jul 2, 2009 11. something bottle with nitro rocket. This is why I didn’t like stouts for a long time. Great color and head. No nose, but maybe the tiniest malt. Taste is bland and shallow. Nothing left in the mouth after the swallow. Bleh. dalek123 (35), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 2, 2009 On tap at the Alamo Drafthouse in Houston. Appearance is black thick creamy head. Flavor is coffee, toast, and medicine with a bitter finish. A classic. phaleslu (22), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Jul 1, 2009 After trying so many other stouts, coming back to Guinness, it’s a lot less bold and complex than the really good ones. Still, out at just another bar, you could do a lot worse- just plain hits the spot sometimes. beerfest5 (83), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA Jun 30, 2009 a staple of any bar in the world, good anytime of the year, anytime of day. REDDOGICE (198), nantucket, Massachusetts, USA Jun 28, 2009 I like it, although the draught can version is a bit too watery for me. People look at me as if I’m crazy for liking the darker beers. MeisterBrew (116), Cheyenne, Wyoming, USA Jun 27, 2009 Bottle. Pour a dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malts and a hint of coffee. Flavor is not what I remembered... At one time I thought this stuff was actually heavy. I can’t believe how watery and light this stuff really is. Faint flavor of roasted malts and an even lighter coffee flavor. Very watery... horrible. DeadGuyPerez (9), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA does not count Jun 26, 2009 Smoky, roasted aroma, and tastes as dark as it looks with coffee notes. Smooth and tasty, slightly bitter. A favorite. chrisv10 (127), Denmark Jun 23, 2009 50 cl draft. Black body with thick creamy head. Aroma is roasted malts and a little coffee as is the flavour.
