Hello, New here... Having said that, anyone ever mix two or three different styles of dark Guinness together in a growler or something similar? Wanting feedback. Thanks!
Ah, yes - the classic "Black & Black". Err.. "Black & Blacker"? "Black, Blacker, Blackest"? Just make sure your wear your safety glasses!
I'm sure you'll get something tasty and drinkable, but am not so sure it'll be any better than the alternatives. They each tend to have their own charms to me.
I did this yesterday, floating a nitro draught Guinness on top of a FES. It was actually pretty damn nice- When it all settled out it all looked the exact same color, even in the daylight- no "line" was detectable at all. But drinking it was a different matter, as the flavor changed mid-glass to become fuller, fruitier and richer (some sweetness). But the 'essence' of the flavor remained the same throughout, that typical roasty/ashy maltiness with a slight twang. I can definitely see doing it again some time. I think I'll call it a Black On Black. Like my soul .
yep, the Scots have a drink similar to this, where they pour a strong 90/- scotch ale at the bottom of the glass, then top up w/a smaller 60/- beer, I think they called it 'Happy Day', this is a similar concoction. My wife an I call it it 'Give me another'.....
I've never heard anyone in Ireland suggest this and now, looking at the photo, I can't understand why not.
