Guinness Draught

Guinness outside of western Europe is nothing short of a disappointment for anyone who has enjoyed the real thing. Assuming this the same Guinness one would be served if stationed on the Emerald Isle, this Irish classic gets its’ own chapter in the history book of brew. It is difficult to match the experience of being served a Guinness in the proper setting. Novelty aside, the well established flavor and musk of a real Guinness will always leave one with the fond memory of how a stout should be. If possible, try not to drink the foreign rip offs.

Can de 440 ml. - Biere de couleur noir avec un tres tres beau collet cremeux et tres collant. Odeur de chocolat, cafe brule, et un peu d’epice. Gout tres faible, un peu de café.

Can 50 cl. Average size, nice creamy off-white lasting head with good lacing. Flat hazy black body. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and roasted/burnt malt. Light/medium body, creamy texture and af soft and flat carbonation. Bitter burnt malt finish. The flavor is moderate sweet.

Pours a dark brown color, nearly black with a light brown head. Aroma is of chocolate, and some malt. Weird because the beer I tasted smelled as if it were going to taste a bit sour - weird for a stout. Flavor is of smoke, chocolate, and coffee. Tastes a little bit of black licorice as well. Its a weird one thats for sure, but nonetheless a decent beer. Definitely a good social beer!

Dark brown, with a tan head. Aroma is roasted malt and a little chocolate. Flavor is roasted malt, with lesser amounts of smoke, chocolate, and coffee.

On the tap. For me this is the beer with the most pleasant appearance when served right. All my other beer appearances are rated "how good it looks compared to Guinness". I also like the mouthfeel very much. Flavour and taste? Well, it’s not exceptional, but it’s easy going and good social beer.

Not much to say about this one. I was never a fan of this when it was the hipster craze. Not that I tried it again, I can see why I wasn’t a fan. No real armoa, but hints of barley and malt. Flavor is watery and thing, but some grain and sugar floating around. Faint hops, and a oaty after taste. Not terrible, just nothing special. A beginner’s craft beer. Nothing wrong with that.

Like taking the tap with you. Draught can be enjoyed anywhere. Much better than the stout. Delicious.
