Had an opportunity to test this on the tour of the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin. The look is very similar to a regular pint of Guinness but definitely thinner and a touch more watery. Flavor was a bit of a letdown as well, lacks the grainy, toasted characters of the origional. Watery and slightly bitter on the palate. I don’t really get the phenomenon of low alcohol beers, but I guess if for some reason you HAD to have less alcohol this might be a nice alternative. Otherwise, I can’t imagine a set of circumstances in which this would ever touch my lips again.
