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. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of caramel, malt, flowers, and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of alt, caramel, and fruit, leading to a bitter finish.

From a 44 cl nitro can. Clear amber golden colour with a creamy lasting white nitro head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, citrus, bread, slightly tropical. Taste is light bitter. Typical absent nitro carbonation. Dry finish. Somewhat muted flavour and aroma due to the nitro widget. It works for the stout, not ideal for an IPA.

Clear brown colour with thick creamy head. Aroma is very muted from the nitro foam. Flavour has some very subtle fruity hop notes. It's not awful but just very bland.

Can. Pours slightly hazy tea amber with stable, creamy off-white head. Clear aroma of malt and yeast, with bready touches and mild hints of hops. Sourish, grainy flavour with sweetish notes of malt and yeast and bitter touches of hops. Grainy and estery aftertaste with touches of hops. Well, more interesting than good. Tastes like a misfired experiment.
