Nothing like the original
Guinness. Took me ages to find one of these, then all of a sudden, south London was flooded with them. I reckon this one is sufficiently different to the regular export version (readily available in Sainsbury's) to be a different drink. It still has a light body when compared to export stouts from the likes of
Kernel and
Partizan, but that's ok (particularly when you've got 660ml of it). Weak coffee plus a winey, berry nose. Taste is quite sweet (particularly as it warms up), perhaps more sweet than the regular export version. A bit more boozy than that one too. This drink will forever remind me of many good times in my younger days at
FWD (when it was in
Plastic People). Sigh.
