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.

Nitro can. Thanks, Carlson, for a beer that doesn't suck! Pours black, with a beautiful nitro head. The nose is pleasant, mild coffee, black bread, and cacao. Sweet and malty, with a touch of bitterness. Light body, with a chalky, crisp palate. This is a simple, quality stout. Also, makes a really nice Dog's Nose cocktail. You should try one!

Typical draught can drunk with pasta and San Daniele Ham overlooking the Dolomites. Perfect tight creamy white nitro head that lasts until you drink it away, over black beer. Flavor is a perfect roasted malty coffee taste, dry with present but smooth bitterness on the back end. Low carbonation. How is this great flavor and head possible in a can: extras point for technology!

On tap @Treefolk's (Rome), Oyster Days. Nera, schiuma avorio/ecrù compatta, cremosa, a grana finissima. Al naso note di malti tostati, caffé, leggero terroso. In bocca è equilibrata, con note tostate, abboccata all'attacco, con leggera acidità da tostato. Corpo leggero, carbonazione leggera. E' sempre un bel bere, specialmente quando è fresca.

Cette Guiness Draught ne transpire pas réellement les ambiances chaleureuses voire endiablées des pubs irlandais. Manque de présence et d'intensité me feraient plus penser à des chaînes essayant de les imiter. Beau visuel toutefois avec un brun foncé et une belle mousse brune et dense de 1 cm. Le nez est appréciable mais manque de caractère avec du café, de la noisette, du tabac et une touche de chocolat. En bouche, attaque, seconde et arrière-bouche sont très décevants, quasi insipides, avec de faibles arômes de café. Ce n'est que sur le final que les arômes découverts au nez se révèlent, mais sur une présence très moyenne. L'amertume est cependant agréable. L'alcool, à 4,2 % est cependant nettement insuffisant. Mais où est le fighting spirit irlandais?

440ml can on 17th March 2021 from M&S, Camden Town. Pours almost solid, but clear, sepia black with pale tan foam and full lacing. Roasty aroma with chocolate notes. Coffee, chocolate and a lactic hint in-mouth. A developing finish that becomes bitter. Velvet smooth mouthfeel and plenty of body.

The iconic stout porter, pours a near black with a creamy off-white/beige head, and a subtle roasted malt aroma. The creamy, smooth mouthfeel allows the slightly bitter roasted malt flavour to slip down very nicely, there’s just not a lot of complexity in the taste, leaving a dry bitter finish

440ml can BBE Mar-21. A very dark brown nearly black, creamy beige head which stays. Aroma of dark malts, earthy, coffee. Smooth mouthfeel, no carbonation, a touch watery. Tastes of dark chocolate, burnt toast with medium bitterness throughout. Easy to drink and makes a change from carbonated beers but couldn't have it as a session beer. Nice though.

Burk från SB. Svart med tajt, krämig beige skumpuck. Rostat, lite bränt. Kroppen blir nästan för mjuk.
