On tap pours black with a tan head. Has some roasted malt aroma. Mouthfeel is too light for my taste. Tastes like a light chocolate roasty brew. I enjoy this for the simple fact it was one of my first ’real’ beers I tried.

Can. Great-looking black beer with long-lasting, big, very creamy head. Mild dry smoke aroma. Simple dry coffee bitter flavor tastes weird with almost no carbonation in a watery meduim body.

From nitro can. Poured a dark brown with smooth nitro cream head. Aroma of bread and caramel malt. Flavor featured vanilla, cocoa, malt, bread, and a generous helping of water. Finishes slightly bitter and largely empty. Guinness was part of a blind stout tasting I took part in, and it came out DEAD LAST overall. Go figure.

esta es una de mis preferidas, una cerveza oscura intensa que desde que se sirve en el vaso se empieza a apreciar con aroma, color y calidad - guttes bierre!

Pours a drark brown with vanilla head. Very smooth easy to drink with no strong aftertaste. Hints of choclate in taste and aroma.

A truly unique stuff - the darkest, and heaviest generally available beer. Never underestimate it!
