I have been watching The House of Guinness on Netflix, which is a good show about the Guinness Brewery and the Guinness family in Ireland. So I decided to review Guinness Draught Stout. This beer is brewed at the St. James Gate brewery in Dublin, Ireland. This dark beer is 4.1% ABV, composed of water, malted barley, roasted barley, regular barley, hops (the type of which is not specified), nitrogen, and yeast. The nitrogen is in a widget inside the can, and that gives this Guinness a smooth texture. This beer pours what looks black at a glance, but when held to some light, it is dark ruby red. This beer has a generous three-finger creamy off-white head that is robust and leaves thick lacing behind. Pour this beer aggressively and watch it cascade like snow forming the grand head. The beer’s aroma hints of coffee and chocolate. The flavor is smooth and not really what you’d think it would be. This Guinness is smooth and bitter, balanced, and it has roasted notes. This beer is easy to drink. This has a light-bodied feel in the mouth. This beer comes to a smooth finish of light chocolate and some coffee. The aftertaste is slightly bitter and creamy, with light roasted coffee. This is not the world’s best stout. It is, however, a really easy-to-drink ”light” stout. I give this one a B-. The stout flavor is light overall, but they are good. I am sure if you follow my blog, then you’ve probably had a Guinness. Please stay safe, be kind to each other, and remember to enjoy responsibly! Cheers!
