On tap it's a safe bet, easily available - for most people Irish stout = Guinness, but if given the choice I actually prefer Beamish.

    This is a go to beer for just about everybody I know. I can't really complain about that as it is my go to beer as well when I visit places that don't have any non-BMC on tap. There is nothing new to what's already been said about this about this beer that I can add. Just an all round very good beer. As it is the stout by which all other stouts are measured (according to Stone Brewing's Greg Koch) I have to give it a 10 for appearance!

    As good as promised, as long as it is on tap. Bottles - mehhh. Creamy head, coffee and malt aroma, slippery mouth, satisfying flavour. Yes, I'd like another, please.

    Had many times before, finally rating. Had it on tap at James St. Pub in Ottawa. Always comes with a generous amount of thick creamy head. Very dark black appearance. Flavours are of burnt roasted malts, dark coffee grinds. Hints of caramel and vanilla in the aroma. Even once a bit lukewarm, still quite tasty, just as good as chilled. Much better on tap than in a tallboy.

    stouts are not my favorite style. This one pours very very dark, with a nice tanish head with very little carbonation. Aroma is sweet coffee and rich malts with slight bitter hopiness. Taste is creamy rich coffee malted with a hops afterwards. This beer always fills me up.

    smooth, but still thinner than i'd like. it's already been said "and they all have a dry, tea-like taste" exactly! not bad, but way overrated. i just don't get it. i'll drink one but hundreds of stouts are better. maybe the foreign extra will convince me...

    Pours very dark, creamy slightly tan head long lasting lacing on the glass. Mouthfeel is lass chewy than Guinness Draught. The flavor of stout variety is less nutty than the Draught variety. A beer that you grow into!

    There, I've tried all the major Guinness products, and they all have a dry, tea-like taste contained with a brown body. I realize the rest of the world thinks this is some brown elixer, but I cannot say that I share their passion for this brew.

    IF EVER IN DOUBT THIS IS MY GO TO BEER. ALWAYS CREAMY, SMOOTH, AND REFRESHING NO MATTER WHAT COUNTRY I AM TRAVELING. I DO ONLY ORDER IT IN PUBS WHICH SEEM TO DRAW IT ON A REGULAR BASIS AS IT IS ALWAYS BEST WHEN THE KEG IS FRESHLY TAPPED. I ENJOY IT WHATEVER TEMPERATURE IT IS SERVED AT, HOWEVER SLIGHTLY CHILLED IS MY FAVORITE.

    Pours a deep brown-black classic stout color with a beautiful tight tan head that leaves nice lacing. Very little carbonation. Aroma is sweet coffee and rich malts with slight bitter hopiness. Taste is creamy rich coffee malted with a hops afterwards. Now that I have tried all kinds of beers, I can drink Guinness and enjoy it as the stalwart it is and always will be.

    Tastey stout...A beer that will always have room in the fridge. Pours a black body. Aroma was coffee, tobacco, caramel. Tastes coffee, toffe, a little sweet.
