Guinness 0 draught can from Busch's. Pours a deep brown with finger of beige, creamy foam that lingers. Looks like a Guinness for sure. Some nutty aromas with soy sauce and umami as it warms. Palate is very similar with soy sauce and faint chocolate notes. Smooth finish. Not bad.

Tiefschwarze Farbe; cremige und stabile Schaumkrone, die etwas grobporiger ausfällt als bei der normalen Variante. In der Nase zurückhaltend und wenig aromatisch, etwas Röstmalz, etwas Schwarzbrot, eine leicht sahnige Note. Im Geschmack nicht schlecht, von allem viel weniger - aber alles ist da, cremiger Körper, malzig, Röstmalz, Bittere ist präsent - fällt aber milder aus als erwartet, trocken.

A classical lager, not the thing that you could expect of guiness, malty, caramel, hop, a bit watery, not so aromatic, reasonable, 16.07.18, buying it at one coop and serving me this can at home, Prélaz.

440 ml nitro can, alcohol free stout, from a grocery store in Brighton, consumed at home. Black colour, moderate but nice and creamy nitro head of good retention. Malty and roasty aroma and flavour, surprisingly similar to the "ordinary" Guinness Draught. Well, not identical, of course, but more than good enough when you need a n/a alternative.
