Pours black/ruby with creamy mocha beige head. Does not produce much of the "Fall", the waterfall cascade effect of the effervescent carbonation!
Head is well lasting, laces the glass nicely. The taste is of coffee and dark unsweetened chocolate and a tangy bite of bitterness. The nitro bottle is the closest thing to bringing the pub home!

Nothing beats the look of a Guinness in a Guinness glass, in a beautiful beer garden with sun shining down. If only there was son/sun and if only I was in a beer garden. I love the blackness VS the whiteness. Brings back so many memories and subconscious feelings.
Aroma, ok not great.
Taste is the perfect balance of flavours. Not as strong as a belgian dark beer, though it works well as a session beer to drink lots of. In my life I have certainly contributed well to their profits. I have never been to Dublin though actually for me Australian and Nigerian Guinness are the best. Nigerian is extra strong :) They sell it in some places in London.
Taste is creamy, with coffee.
I love the feel of Guinness. it is perfect somehow. Creamy and the right consistency.
Guinness makes me happy.
From a bottle is not the same as a can. Sometimes a can is better than draught, depending on the pub ; )

On tap only. This is the very same beer as the ordinary Guinness Draught, only served a bit colder. I only buy this in England if the Guinness Draught at regular temperature (which is moe than cold enough) is unavailable.

Pours black with a 1/2 inch creamy, tan head. Moderate lacing, which lasts to the end.
Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, Goldings hops.
Tastes of coffee, mild chocolate, slightly sour. Mild bitterness.
Medium bodied, creamy, light carbonation. Dry finish.
One of the best things to come out of Ireland. Good beer.

A solid stout without much in the way of adulteration. A little thin, otherwise it’d be just about a clean 4. 2018/12/27

Surprisingly light and smooth despite deep, rich, almost black color. Nice notes of chocolate, caramel, coffee and biscuit. Clean finish with very crisp mouthfeel, definitely not expected considering the usual Guinness stout experience. Would treat this almost as an easy-drinking light beer.
