Common descriptors are
This Nitrogenated dry stout has a plush texture contributed by the pouring method employed by Guiness and a frieze of other breweries. The beer is pushed with nitrogen through a restrictor plate that creates a dense, shag head and a smooth lightly carbonated beer beneath. The result is a saxony, opaque black ale that is light, smooth and bittersweet. We brewed this stout with Maris Otter pale ale, brown malt, flaked and roasted barley. Then balanced that maltiness out with a pile of English Nugget hops. Berber get it while it lasts.
