    I wanted to buy some on the website for pickup for the upcoming St. Patricks Day and I don't see any. So I went to the actual store and still see none on shelves. I asked one of the managers and he did not seem to know if they were able to get in Foreign Extra Stout this year.

    Does anyone have any current info on this?

    Still not available. After confirming with the manager once again, found out that Bevmo is no longer gonna carry the Guinness FES....

    It's not even on the website.. Total wine it is I guess!

    Total Wine and BevMo both had it. 6 packs and bombers.

    I bought a couple bombers of the Extra Stout for $2.99 each at BevMo.

    Isn't the Foreign version different than just the regular extra stout we see? I'm pretty sure Foreign Extra Stout has a different label and different recipe

    Here is what our Diageo - Guinness USA rep told us via email on 3/18/14:

    "Guinness Foriegn Extral Stout...to my knowledge will continue to be available in the US. I also checked with the brand team, and was assured it’s here to stay, as a permanent contributor to the planned Guinness portfolio growth."

    So weird, the guy at total wine in Brea (Shawn) said right away, that they and all other total wines will no longer carry it....
