Jul 31, 2008 Nothing better than a perfectly poured Guinness on a cold winter night. Such a smooth beer from start to finish. Can understand why most people are intimidated by its appearance but dont be...this is truly a great easy to drink beer.

Jul 29, 2008 on tap at local dive bar on nitro tap. Nice and creamy, but light body and poundable. I know many of you serious beer people hate nitro taps, and I do agree that they aren’t appropriate from certain brews, but I think it is perfect of this brew. There isn;t much in the way of flavor or aroma, but I like the creamy head and the silky smoothness of a cheap and poundable stout on draft. Overall: I don;t agree with people who praise or shun Guinnesse. Its a fine safety brew.

Jul 25, 2008 11.2 oz bottle. The aroma is of coffee for this stoutish beer. I drank this out of the bottle so I can’t say much about the appearance, but I remember from the bar that I really liked the waterfall. The flavor is similar to the taste of coffee. Medium bitterness, light sweetness. Creamy texture, flat in carbonation. Overall a very good taste, and easy to drink but lacking in the ABV.

Jul 22, 2008 Nice dark color with frosty head. Rich flavor that tends to end rather abruptly. Very nice beer. I will concur with other posters here that it is not very good in cans or bottles.

Jul 20, 2008 Pour is pretty amazing, nice dark black color with a cream colored head that you can see rise from the bottom. Slightly roasted aroma. Starts smooth with building flavor that ends abruptly and melds into a watery coffee mixture that finishes with a bitter coffee taste.

Jul 20, 2008 Somewhat of a watery mouthfeel for a stout, due to the nitrogen. Guinness draft always looks much better than it tastes.

Jul 19, 2008 I love this beer. I dont have access to alot of draft stouts but even if I did Im sure this would still be near the top of my list. I last had it after a round of golf while watching the British Open in a British pub eating some curry. It doesnt get much better than that
