Oct 14, 2007 12oz bottle from at the Nassau airport... wow what a surprise. this was actually brewed in NASSAU!! good start and then the aftertaste was horrible. left a very heavy iron taste in your mouth. Was very disappointed that this was called a Guinness.

Oct 8, 2007 Bottle from ASDA. Opaque black with a decent tan head. Powerful roasty aroma with a touch of sweetness. Flavours of coffee, charcoal with a long, bitter finish and some warming alcohol. Very good.

Oct 4, 2007 Updated: Jul 4, 2008Pours black with tan, tight frothy head. Aromas of coffee, malt, and caramel. Tastes of roasted malt, coffee, some chocolate and hops with a slightly bitter finish. Very rich smooth palate. One of my favorite stouts from Guinness.

Oct 1, 2007 Straight black pour with the lightest ruby reflects. Fat, lasting tan head of irregular shaped bubbles. A rather complex fruitiness develops in the aroma which hints at blackberries and black cherries along the usual coffee and liquorice suspects. On the tongue, liquorice grows to take more room, making the fruits more subtle and the whole thing less juicy than expected whereas soft coffee roastiness comes along for the finish. A rather solid offering, perhaps feeling a bit fatty and certainly very sweet as its bitterness comes only from the malts apparently. The constant alcohol presence is also not something I dig particularly.

Sep 30, 2007 A sugary light coffee aroma. Flavor is dry and hoppy and bitter but also has a light sourness to it as well, shich isn’t good. Still, pretty good stuff.

Sep 30, 2007 Dublin-07. I picked this one up at the St. James’s gate brewery store. Dark beige head, and dark black colour. Very roasty and bitter with full body.

Sep 30, 2007 Nice hoppier version of a stong guiness. The low carbonation and roasted barley make this quite pleasant to drink in a warm climate. Oak and coffee round out this "extra" nice stout.

Sep 27, 2007 Hoppy and burned aroma makes this black beauty stand out. Loads of burned malt, hops and some fattish sensations in the taste.
Quite a bit more interesting than the average guinness
