Description:

Adored since 1959, it’s the powerful surge and settle that gives GUINNESS® Draught beer its uniqueness. Lovingly poured around the world, GUINNESS® Draught is one of best-selling imported beers in the USA.

A unique mix of nitrogen and carbon dioxide helps create GUINNESS® Draught’s liquid swirl that tumbles, surges and gradually separates into a black body and smooth creamy head.

The rise and fall of our bubbles has perplexed PhD physicists. But all you need to focus on is the taste. With an initial malt and caramel flavour, GUINNESS® Draught finishes with a dry roasted bitterness. Enjoy.

Guinness Draught from the keg is significantly better, IMO.

I would have to agree. Keg draught is so much smoother.

Appearance - 5.0

Pours dark as night, no light coming through at all. Has one fingers worth of creamy tan head with good lacing.

Aroma - 4.0

Delicious aroma smells of roasted coffee.

Mouthfeel - 3.0

Creamy, low carbonation. It feels a tad watery.

Taste - 2.0

Don't get too much out of the taste, some roasted malts and a bit of sourness. I was a little let down by the lack of flavor

Overall - 3.0

Overall I wasn't hugely impressed. I think Guiness's Extra Stout is much better. It's not a bad beer, but lacks in flavor for me personally. To be fair I am sure it tastes much better with a proper pour on draft. I had the bottled version.
