guinnessphreek (2), British Columbia, Canada does not count Jul 7, 2009 Amazing beer. Smells of coffee and goes down very smooth leaving a tiny bitter taste at the back of your mouth. An easy choice for any day of the week. jrallen34 (123), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jul 6, 2009 Before I knew what real heavey beer was this was a good one. Now, to me it almost tastes watery compared to other stouts. It has a decent coffee taste but this is just a beer I could never get into. thefrutigers (100), , Arizona, USA Jul 5, 2009 On tap at Dis Doon Varna: Black with off white creamy head. Roasted burnt malt flavor. Coffee like bitterness with slight sourness. Very watery mouth feel. Great commercial brew. Lagunitasfan (432), 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 (103), 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 (427), 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 (128), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA Jun 30, 2009 a staple of any bar in the world, good anytime of the year, anytime of day. REDDOGICE (202), 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.
