Made in Dublin, Ireland at St. James's Gate, Guinness™ Nitro IPA is brewed with Irish barley malt, a touch of roasted barley and five hop varieties — Admiral, Celeia, Topaz, Challenger and Cascade. The Challenger, Cascade and Topaz hops are dry-hopped to accentuate a sharp citrus aroma. The beer's blend of CO2 and Nitrogen helps to balance out the profusion of hop flavors, while also creating the signature surge and settle made famous by Guinness™ Draught. The IPA is brewed with the same unique Guinness yeast strain used to ferment all stouts at St. James's Gate.

Can shared in Canary Wharf, London - no thanks at all to Adi! Pours clear gold with a creamy, white head. Holds basic doughy pale malt character, with notes of damp grains, old lemon peel, straw. Light bodied with soft carbonation. Bland finish, some damp hay. Poor. Really not a good beer.

Can split at L6 Xmas Karnage tasting, thanks to Tipple, 19/12/19. Very light haze on a golden amber pour with a decent off white cap. Nose is orange peel, straw, cereals, grains, grass. Taste comprises straw, hay, caramel, toasted grains, airy malts, faint citric presence. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. No great for sure !
