Guinness Nitro IPA

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 5 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 6

Pours slightly hazy dark amber with thick and very fine bubbled cream-yellow buff head. Even from a can it looks seriously nitro. Aroma is hoppy and a little fruity, not strong but promising. Flavor presents typical hoppy and subtle fruity notes, the latter more apple than citrus. Mouthfeel features decent body and fizz. I was warned this was nothing special - it’s OK.

Thanks to my neighbor Joey for sharing his 6'er. This beer was surprisingly good. I wasn't sure how Guinness would do with the IPA, but they did a good job and the Nitro cartridge added their famous creamy texture. I liked this and would have it again.

Beautiful big creamy off-white head that lasts forever, after the famous cascade effect. Hazy amber colour. This is exactly what I was expecting from Guinness. Mild taste and aromas of fresh hops, light bitter finish. Smooth mouthfeel. Very drinkable, even refreshing. Nice for those who like the creaminess of Guinness, but don't want the sweetness. Would drink this again.

Got to like the Nitrogen gas. The color and top of this beer , once poured into a nice glass is outstanding.I like the aroma's and the flavors of this beer, nicely balanced with a great flavor.These hops blend nicely together.

A dark mahogany colored beer with a small creamy off white head. I would have wanted more from a nitro beer. There is some hang time on the head, though. The creamy texture hangs around in a moderate ringlet. I think I have some citrus hops in the nose. But then as in the tasting this is just weak grain and water swill. Beer is light bodied and drinkable, smooth with the nitro..

Mild nose for an IPA, pine and sour fruit. Well, yes, its pretty in a Guinness widget sort of way. Huge head, good lace medium copper body. Mouth due to nitro widget is very creamy, odd for a so-called (we will get to that) IPA but fun. Not very bitter even with 5 hops involved (3 of them for dry hopping) more like a Pale than an IPA. Main flavor is coming from what I suspect is a proprietary yeast, a flavor detected in their stout as well. Good amount of roasted malt in the flavor. Very drinkable and a nice change of pace.
