To create Guinness 0.0, the St James’s Gate brewers start by brewing Guinness exactly as they always have, using the same natural ingredients; water, barley, hops and yeast; before gently removing the alcohol through a cold filtration method. The cold filtration process allows the alcohol to be filtered out without presenting thermal stress to the beer, protecting the integrity of its taste and character. The brewers then carefully blend and balance the flavours to ensure the distinctive flavour profile and taste characteristics of Guinness.

The resulting product is a stout that is unmistakably Guinness, just without the alcohol, featuring the same dark, ruby red liquid and creamy head, hints of chocolate and coffee

(Can with widget) Chocolate malt and hay aroma. Black with large tan head. Mildly sweet chocolate malt and mildly bitter hay flavor. Light body. An excellent NA.

Can looks simple but good. Beer in the glass deep black, nice head. Fine roasty-malty aroma. Starts fine roasty malty, caramel hints, mild sweetness. Fine cocoa hints. Finish well balanced, milder, a bit washy. Still really good.

31/VIII/23 - 50cl can from Albert Heijn (Gent), shared @ home, BB: 25/I/24, produced: 27/III/23 L3087GE004 22:01 (2023-513)

Clear dark brown to black beer, creamy thick solid off-white head, stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: very malty, cow fodder, grains, some chocolate, a bit of caramel, cheesy, a bit funky, some cardboard. MF: no carbon, medium to light body, a little creamy in the texture. Taste: slightly sourish first, a bit sweet, some caramel, good bitterness, a gentle roast, a bit metallic, malty, grains. Aftertaste: soft roast, some chocolate, malty, some bread, toast, caramel, pretty bitter, hoppy, dry finish, very decent for a 0.0% abv!

Can. Black body with a thick beige head that holds. Faint lacing. Aroma of red fruits, coffee and brown sugar. Flavour of roasted malt and caramel. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A subtle, tasty beer that definitely has Guiness hallmarks.

Can. Looks great with the thick creamy nitro head I must say. I’m not a huge fan of regular Guinness but this is quite similar. There’s a bit of vanilla even. It’s decent for a few sips but it’s mostly stale malts and a light sour finish. Not very good, though the nitro does help make it better.

Great nitrogen effect (Same as the real version) when can was popped with a great, three centimetre tall very rich brown head that tops the beer like velvet - great! Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, oatmeal, light coffee and a nice bit of vanilla too - quite nice, especially for the style (N/A!). Medium-bodied; Quite rich malts hit at first with the chocolate, oatmeal and sugars right behind, but the texture is great and is very familiar here - just like the full alcohol version, with a nice kick of malts in the very smooth, nitrogenated finish. Aftertaste is very nice with a smooth oatmeal, coffee, chocolate and grainy note near the end with the great texture throughout, with a lot of sugars, perhaps more than the normal alcohol version, but this is quite close and while Guinness [draught] is low in alcohol anyways, this is impressive at 0%! Overall, perhaps the best N/A beer I've had and very reminiscent of the real Guinness, especially with the nitrogen hitting just as expected - great during my N/A month, especially on St. Patrick's Day - thanks Dublin for making my month a bit more interesting! I'd consider drinking this at other times as well, this is so good! I sampled this 14,9 ounce can, purchased earlier in the day from Total Wine in Potomac Yard (Alexandria), Virginia on 17-March-2022 for US$7,69/four pack, sampled at my house here in Washington on St. Patrick's Day, 17-March-2022.

After all, it is a watery Guiness - it lacks quite a bit of the roasted taste, but for an alcoholfree it is not bad. Dark pour with a stable tan head. Aromas of cocoa, coffee and malt, taste is similar. Might have it again.

Draft. A- Cocoa, roasty, watery. A- Dark brown color, dark liquid, tan head. T- Roasty, cocoa, watery. P- Light body, thin texture, flat carbonation, bland finish. O- It's Guinness that feels like it has been watered down. Which is saying a lot for a beer that is already light. I suppose for a 0% beer it is honestly good, but I wouldn't choose it unless I couldn't have the regular.
