Guinness Draught:
Greetings and salutations all and welcome to a special day of beer review.  Today we look at what is probably my favorite beer for a long time and is still in my top beers.  Guinness Draught is a special beer to any beer drinker by being loved or hated, no one really tolerates this beer.  Maybe it’s the fact that this beer has it’s own special glassware, or it maybe the fact that it takes a while when poured from the tap or that it goes really well with whiskey (Irish is best of course).  I don’t know the reasons for one to hate this beer, but to each their own, but all you haters don’t know what you’re missing.  The beer is really light for a stout, almost velvet smooth in the taste which blends a nice coffee and coca blend.  The best part of a Guinness is the head, it’s creamy, thick and adds a cream taste to the aforementioned blend.  There really isn’t much of nose, just the ethereal alcohol smell with a hint of coffee.  The beer itself is light in the ABV with only 4.1% (hell, Coors Light is 4.2%) but that just means you can enjoy more of it, right?  Well, best enjoyed from a draught, from the can or bottle is good as well though there seems to be a taste difference, the can being more mellow and metallic.  A great beer, probably best known for it’s ability to be in a mixed beer ( e.g. Black and Tan, Snake Bite, etc), any way you try it, it’s worth the effort.
