God’s Gift to mankind! Quite a nice and very complex burnt taste. The Widget does a good job of making it Draught in a can. I perfer the Draught Tap at the pub, but that costs US 4.75 a pint (ouch) while this costs arround $2 a pint can. If you want a good beer try this, but you have to try it at least twice because you probally will not like your first pint, at least I didn’t. It’s an aquirred taste, like Moxie. Aquire the taste and you know ’Guinness is good for you!’ Well at least they used to say that :-)

When your tastes have developed and matured you choose classical as your music of choice and Guinness as your beer.
