Swirling clouds tumble as the storm begins to calm. Settle. Breathe in the moment, then break through the smooth, light head to the bittersweet reward.

Unmistakeably GUINNESS, from the first velvet sip to the last, lingering drop. And every deep-dark satisfying mouthful in between.

Pure beauty. Pure GUINNESS.

Самый знаменитый стаут в мире. Есть ли смысл писать что то еще? Имеет вкус кофе и горького шоколада , который долго не уходит с языка. Вещь весьма плотная.

Pours an opaque pitch black color with a thick tan head and excellent retention. Excellent lacing. Light cocoa aroma. Creamy mouthfeel. Taste of dark cocoa with a little coffee mixed in. Very low carbonation. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Medium-light body. Light bitterness, especially for 45 IBU. Easily repeatable.

Tap in Antwerp. Granddaddy of Irish Stouts. A Black beer with a very strong roasted taste and i liked it.

What can be said about this that hasn't already been said. Basically a session stout. Perfectly smooth and balanced: the 100 years of tradition and fine tuning show. It might not be as flavorful as craft stouts (which I also love) but it certainly is not watery in taste.

Pint in a Dublin street corner pub while on a business trip. Looked truly magnificent in the glass with a perfect head. Great mouth feel but no real flavour. I've had so many great stouts in recent years that I've realised this is quite poor.

I'm sure it used to taste better, it seems a bit watery. It's still Guinness and it's still nice it just doesn't seem as flavourful as it used to.
