Nitro-can, nitro-keg and nitro-bottle; Filtered
Usually called Draught; sometimes called Cold or Extra Cold - same beer, but served colder. Abv ranges from 4.1 to 4.3 % depending on where it was brewed - Guinness exports a hopped and concentrated wort to regional breweries who then brew it on site.

St. James’s Gate Brewery - Dublin, County Dublin, Ireland
Wenig, allerdings extrem feinporiger und sehr cremiger Schaum. Malzige Noten, etwas Traubensaft, leicht röstig-bitter. Sehr weich, sehr leicht - gerade so an der Grenze, bevor es tatsächlich anfängt wässrig zu werden. Gut trinkbar, durchaus schmackhaft. Reißt kurz Themen an, die (wenn ausgeprägter) nicht jedem gefallen - aber als besonderer Charakter gelten und einen kleineren, eingefleischteren Kreis von Liebhabern bedienen würden. So allerdings weltweit absolut massentauglich - und macht dabei einen guten Job.
Hab das Bier sonst nur im Irish Pub getrunken. Um ne objektive Bewertung unter gleichen Bedingungen zu erstellen habe ich mir 3 Dosen im Supermarkt gekauft. Nach dem Einschenken kommt die große Verwunderung. Irgendwas ist noch in der Dose. Was ist das? Ein Eisklumpen, weil ich es zu gut eingekühlt habe (kommt bei mir tatsächlich gelegentlich vor)? Ein Mäusetotenkopf? Ein abgebrochenes Stück von der Abfüllmaschine? Die Rückseite der Dose gibt Aufschluss. Das ist eine Plastikkugel, die die optimale Schaumentwicklung bewirken soll. Muss das wirklich sein? Die wenigsten Leute finden es toll, wenn Plastik in ihrem Bier schwimmt. Davon abgesehen, dass das nicht optimal fürs Recycling der Dose ist.
Smooth
Bier was nicht stört aber auch nicht begeistert. Geschmack beim Trinken sehr mild, etwas zu wässrig, im Nachgeschmack erinnert es ein wenig an Kaffee.
Black with off-white head. Aroma of roasted cofee and caramel, taste is coffee, tobacco, tar, chocolate. With eb
Can from Sainsburys. Black pour with a beige head. Had this a thousand times over many years, suprised I've never rated it. Anyway, creamy coffee, chocolate and sweet malt aromas.Taste is coffee, milky chocolate and a slightly intrusive bitterness which I'm sure wasn't there years ago.Malty bitter finish.
Creamy, dark, roasted notes with hints of coffee. Refreshing
Dark, bitter and creamy
Aroma: Mild, roasted malt, chocolate.
Taste: Medium strength on the taste. Chocolate and roasted malt. Something a bit sour in the background (not bad). Not too sweet. Feels a bit watery and no carbonation, but its not too bad. The roasted malt helps the mouthfeel.
Aftertaste is a bit stronger than average. Roasted malt.
It's decent and I remember that it's going to be watery so I don't get dissappointed even tho it's a long time since last time I bought one.
440ml can @ 4.1% ABV
Colour is the iconic dark brown/jet black colour with a two finger creamy beige head. Aroma is of coffee, chocolate, roasted malt and notes of cream. Taste is coffee, chocolate, roasted malts, creamy and taste is overall quite similar to aroma. Mouthfeel is very creamy and soft. Bitterness is moderate and consistent with the flavours. Overall, not too bad of a stout, very ordinary but certainly drinkable and quite refreshing.
Poured from nitro tap @ Wolf & Hound. Easy tick that I’ve never bothered with, but when watching a comedy show at a local Irish pub, why not? Dark brown with creamy beige head. Creamy, roast malt, simple, inoffensive, also not all that interesting. Okay, tick done, will eventually do a re-rate one day when I actually travel to Ireland.
My regular go to drink always enjoy it. Sometimes get a bad pint or can. Hence why not 5 stars. There is always room for improvement
Pitch black color, nice creamy thick long lasting head.
Aroma yeast, malt, roasted coffee.
Nice creamy body, roasty, coffee, yeast.
A classic for a reason.
Che dire di questa birra dal corpo unico e rotondo. Bevuta alla spina in tantissimi pub di Irlanda è qualcosa di fantastico e forse inimitabile nel suo genere
You really can't go wrong with a Guinness. My go to drop.
Malty burnt sweetness and hoppy bitterness, Smooth, creamy, pitch black and that caramel foam head.
Rich of creamy quality beige 1/2 finger head over almost opaque brown, with tiny amber highlights pour. Roasted malty and chocolate milk fragrant. Smooth mild flavors pass quickly on the tongue and palate as the drink goes down easily. The minimal head remains alongside a sticky lacing. Residual cocoa tastes as the carbonation returns up. Cool medium dry finish.
Kulsort med fint mørkt skum, der hænger i glasset. Duft af kaffe. Let bitterhed og lakridssmag. Meget lidt fylde. Let og behagelig på trods af lakridssmagen.
Dark brown, almost black, dense light tan head. Light bodied with roasty notes. Dry, medium-light bitter and medium-light sour.
Fat på Kvarteret & Co. Svart med fluffig beige skumkrona. Mild och len munkänsla. Rostade toner och lite humle i smak och doft.
Can 50cl. Ink black with an almost white head that builds slowly (as you've probably noticed in the pub). Slight aroma of grain. The taste is mildly bitter with a milky touch. Not as good as in the pub but still very nice.
Najbliższe skojarzenia - kawa zbożowa, taka Inka. Zero gazu, choć piana trwała i piękna, przez co tym silniej przypomina kawę. Fajna sprawa, choć przez brak nagazowania i niski ekstrakt do bólu nasuwa podobieństwo do wody.
Die Optik ist einmalig! Tiefschwarz mit cremig-feiner Perlage, die von unten nach oben langsam nachlässt. Die bräunliche Schaumkrone zeigt sich cremig, wahnsinnig stabil und unglaublich langlebig.
Schöne, weiche und zarte Duftaromatik von dunkler Schokolade, Kaffee und feiner Hefe. Der Antrunk kommt frisch, sanftrezent und röstig. Am Gaumen zeigt sich eine sehr volle und kräftige, zartherbe Röstaromatik, die ein wenig an dunkle Schokolade, aber viel mehr als starken Kaffee erinnert. Der trocken-herbe Hopfen und eine angemessene Säure ergänzen das perfekt. Auch wenn es klischeehaft scheint, aber ein Guinness Draught ist einfach der Inbegriff eines irischen Stouts. Dieses Bier hat einfach keinen Fehler, keinen Makel und es kommt mit läppischen 4,2 % Alkohol aus. Sowas muss mal wer nachmachen. Ein weiches angenehmes Mundgefühl und eine ausgezeichnete Süffigkeit sprechen für sich. Im Nachtrunk wirkt es anfangs zwar etwas dünn und säuerlich, aber die röstigen Kaffeenoten bereiten einen sehr langlebigen Ausklang. Letztendlich bleiben deutlich herbe, kaffeeartige Noten auf dem Gaumen, sowie an der Kehle.
Can. Dark pour, heavily carbonated, large head. Smooth and creamy malt with roasted flavour and slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
We visited Dublin for the first time today, had to make the pilgrimage to the Temple Bar for a pint of Guinness. It turned out to be a great experience and the beer was very good too. A nitro-charged pint of stout, the appearance was superb. I saw a dark brown-black liquid at the bottom transitioning to a milky brown body closer to the top with a creamy, never decreasing head of parchment brown foam. I took a pleasant drink of malt and chocolate and grain. But the sensation was really nice, a memorable, creamy texture that was still present on subsequent sips. A fine event in all ways.
Редкостная гадость: если любитель Гиннеса то в банке НИКОГДА не покупайте

Przepiękne kolory po wlaniu do kufla
Can from local supermarket. This tastes like coffee mixed with copious amounts of rainwater. A watery, flat and charactless swill with slight hops and nothing else. Really bad.
14.9 ounce can. Pours black with a lasting creamy beige head. Slight roasted barley aroma with a bland flat taste. Little noticeable hop bitterness except for the dark malts. Boring finish. Would taste much better in a 300 year old pub in Dublin.
