Commercial Description:
Labatt's brew a pale ale base to which is added the unfermented but hopped Guinness wort extract. Guinness Extra Stout is brewed in Canada by Labatt under license from Arthur Guinness Son & Company. Editor's Note: It looks like Moosehead is also brewing Guinness. Bottles in the US are from there of late, but Canadian bottles are still showing Labatt. 04/23/06

Bottle: Pours a deep brown with a large, frothy tan head. Nose is rather hoppy with light cocoa and some roastiness. Tastes more roasty and dark chocolate based. Some light bitters with plenty of roastiness and a little molasses. Thinner on the body, but a decent brew.

Dry is right. They took the parts of Guinness Draught that I liked and subdued them here.

Poured from 12oz bottle a dark brown black with a large frothy tan head that left blotchy legs as the foam receded. Nose of a tart roast grain rises through the foam. The flavor goes much the same with a mild tartness leading to a roasted smooth grain with a touch of ash or smokiness, coffee, and a very light caramel without any sweetness. The palate is dry, tart, and mildly bitter. A sipping beer to be sure but easy to drink.

Pours black with one finger tan head. Aromas of roasted malt and a dash of hops. not too complex, but it goes down easy. Roasty and relatively flavorful. Good if its the only thing available, but otherwise I shy away.

I forgot to rate one of the beer kings? Yikes. Anyway there isn’t much to add except when given a choice of your typical 20 beers on tap I ALWAYS go for this one. Old faithful it is.
