Pours out deep black with nice head. Nice mocha flavor, very thick and cream. Also really smooth. This stuff is great!! One of the best stout I ever had.

Thank God for the new draught cans and bottles and increased US sales. It was hard to find on tap 15 years ago and those old stout bottles were hard to swallow.

THE Beer. Pitch black, browny head - very thick and creamy, lasts for a long time. The taste is unbeatable, what can I add here, everyone knows it. Feels great on the palate, very bitter aftertaste. Awesome, legendary stout. The draught version is almost the absolute Almost Godlike.

The best. Guinness draught is the true stout it’s dark got a great aroma and such a distinct strong taste. The first sip when you have to fight through the thick head is the best. Definitely one of my favorites.

I fell in love with this beer the moment I tasted it. The way it layers as you poor it, the thick head and sweet yet hoppy smell.... then that delicious chocolate and caramel flavor make this a real treat. I love that it is not heavy for as dark as it is.

The Irish get it right with Guinness stout. Clearly the finest beer ever brewed, with the exception of vintage Sumerian 4517 BC.
