r u dumb ? u need to shake the guinness he poured first because it has a widget in the can that’s what makes it have the head at the top the other can u don’t need to do that 💀
I buy Guinness here in America can, bottle, or draught at my local tavern. I have never in my life had a Guinness that looks as bad as either of these. Not sure this guy knows much about beer overall anyhow.
Canned Guinness is good. The Irish can pours just the way its meant to. Whatever is in the American can is not Guinness. They probably just let them use their name.
The pour from the can is very important with Guiness, you're not supposed to pour it with the glass tipped, you are supposed to crack it and hard pour the beer immediately in the glass. Guiness is nitrogen infused, so pouring it in the glass hard helps the gas release in the glass and enhances the flavour and frothy feel it has.
Most Irish people dont even know this and they’re wasting the creamy cans. Additionally the ones from Ireland at least have a widget in them which is like a little grey ball which bobbles around and agitates the bubbles as you pour

Heinekin still comes from the Netherlands, and beers imported in very small volumes may still come from the country they are associated with, but the sorts of beers you find on tap in Chinese, Thai, or other Asian restaurants, are probably being "imported" from Ontario. 🙄
When I visited the Guinness Store house in Dublin, one of the Guinness representatives stated that the U.S. does not allow a certain wooden barrel used to transport the original recipe of the beer and it ships in a different type of wooden barrel to the states which alters the flavor.
I was taught by a Guinness rep that for the cans you just dump the whole thing straight in. With a Guinness pint it seems to work for me every time with a perfect head.
When i worked in a bar we once had a guiness rep come in for a bunch of things like installing some new gear etc but while there she showed us how to decant a can of guiness and especially she opened it put it down flipped the glass upside down on top of the can then flipped the whole thing back around and slowly pulled the can up keeping it about 2cm above the water line until the can was empty
The two-part-pour is only when pouring from the tap, when pouring from a can you need to open it and get the Guinness from the can into the glass basically as fast as you can in one go. It’s common to open the can then immediately tip it upside down into the glass and raise it as the glass fills being careful not to touch the can against the surface of the Guinness.
The misinformation going crazy here. Firstly, that “special ball” is called a widget, it stores pressurized nitrogen that releases when the can is opened, which helps fizz up the beer so that you can get some proper heard ( 😉). Secondly, because of the widget, pouring from the can is basically the same as the tap, and Guinness even has official instructions that tell you to do that ( the instructions are included with the nitro surge accessory and is labeled Guinness’s Official best way to pour ). Another note to keep in mind, the reason you want to have a head on your pint, is because the head keeps it carbonated for way longer than no head. Tarraignt do ceann amach as do thóin 😂
Come on, man! Cut the dude some slack. He comes from a place they believe angels and Bigfoot are real. Of course he's gonna believe Guinness from a can is the ultimate bomb.
Hahaha I love it respect to Ireland, Mexico is the same way the beer is just better then American 😄 in fact Modelo is the #1 best selling beer in the United States 🇺🇸
Fun fact... Nursing mothers were given a pint of the Guinness to nourish them in hospitals in England My mother in-law said so. She was a nurse, way back
And tap Guinness is far better than the canned Guinness, I was in Ireland in my early 20s, 15 or so years ago and It was so good I must of had 10 pints that night. I can still remember that taste and I woke up next to an Irish bbw in my room the next morning and she took me to her mother’s home for a full Irish breakfast. Had a blast in Ireland but just never went back maybe someday.
@@benjamincoram7036 The foam is an indication of the level of carbonation/nitronation in the beer. As someone mentioned, the widget inside the can sometimes malfunctions and doesn’t properly nitronate the beer. It happens sometimes in both Irish cans and American cans. In this case, it looked like the American can malfunctioned. Also, even in Ireland, some pubs are known to have “good” Guinness and some pubs are known to have “bad” Guinness. Guinness is a very temperamental beer, if you can even call it a beer.

Lad firstly don't drink Guinness from a can draught is king. Two to pour from can, crack it, flip it vertical in the glass and slowly lift the can up, the widget in the can staggers the pour to simulate the tap. Trust me on this I'm from Ireland and that's the only way to pour Guinness from a can.
@@gohabs8918That goes against how most Americans drink their beer. I bartended at a chain restaurant, nothing too serious, and always had someone complain I was “cheating them out of beer” if it had a head on it.

I took my son to Dublin, Ireland when he was 20. He had tased Guinness before while on campus. But, we took a tour of the Guinness Brewery and had a complimentary Guinness. We haven’t had a Guinness since! There is no comparison that a U.S. Guinness can come close to the taste of an original Irish Guinness.
Biggest mistake I ever made was visiting the brewery in Dublin. Once you've tasted Guinness in Dublin it absolutely ruins Guinness at home for at least a year😢
They are made in the same factory, but for exported cans they have a different formula so that they last a lot longer. It even tastes better in pubs the closer to the brewery
Irish Guinness is completely different from any other country’s version. It’s made completely differently. In England, the pubs often import Irish Guinness for the Irish when they come over for the horse racing.
I drink canned American Guiness poured into a glass and sometimes the Nitro ball aka "widget" doesn't activate as well as it should. So the foam amount will likely vary between American cans. "Freshness" also probably has something to do with it
Yes agreed, I have Guinness on draft in Ireland, Europe and also usa, Ireland is like you say night and day better in their guiness, it's depressing knowing I'll never get the.full experience again :(
It's essential to have the can well chilled. Also, you may have been confused/misinformed about the 120 seconds and the second pour. That's to do with draught pints, not cans. You pour the full can down the side of the glass, and when the brown fuzz stops rolling up the glass it's cooked. Sláinte! Maith an fear! ☘️
Guys, if your ever in Ireland, ask for a pint of Murphys, in my opinion it tastes much nicer and smoother than Guinness and it well worth a try. But yeah Guinness is the nicest when its in Ireland, i thought the exported stuff would taste the same, but it seems to taste different in every country.
Guinness varies even in Ireland generally you want to get into the countryside where there's an old fashioned pub the taps are slower than in big cities and it generally tastes better. I've lived in Ireland my entire life all I do is drink Guinness when I'm out so I know what truly great Guinness is. Generally once you leave Ireland the quality just goes down there's only one place that I've gone to abroad that could pass as a decent pint in Ireland and that is Mulligan's in Manchester in England. I've been everywhere too I've drank Guinness in every country I've been to.
Im english and had hundreds of guniesses over here from cans and taps and I went to Belfast and the difference is insane a fresh guiness from a pub over there is undefeated
Guinness does have a brewery in MD in the states but most of the standard classic Guinness draught and Extra Stout is imported from Ireland. That said is also the real big reason for change in taste, simply it just sit in can and bottle longer being exported over long distances it maybe months before that can cracked whereas your beer may have been brewed not even a week ago in Ireland. Just a huge time difference in distribution. That's really the key in difference.
You can indeed get imported Guinness in the US and it does oftentimes sit too long so it’s not an optimal solution. I’m not sure why you have the idea that the standard Guinness draught and Extra Stout is coming from Ireland- I’ve visited both facilities multiple times and certainly the draught that you get in the US is coming from the Baltimore facility these days. It definitely tastes different, but it also seems like he didn’t pour the American version properly.
Also, the export Guinness is a slightly different brew with a different alcohol percentage and slightly other variations of the ingredients in it. At least, that's what the people of the brewery told when I went on a tour there.
I'm Canadian, cans of Guinness sold here have the widget as well. I suspect those sold in America also have it, at least the one I had last week in Phoenix did. I question his take on the American can considering we didn't see him open that one, nor know how long it sat before he poured it.
Either the American version was old/defective, or you really got a junky version there because I didn't see ANY of that nitrogen bubbling that you usually get when you pour a Guinness from a can.
I didn't hear the nitrogen capsule go off in the "American" version think it was a bad capsule so it altered the flavor but i can say it is a mild taste difference since I've had both but not enough to be a determining factor
You can't beat a good pint of Guinness from a good Irish old man's pub. And for beginners, a drop of raspberry. Thanking you all the way from Ireland. ❤❤❤❤😂
The blind confidence this dude has is wild. From seemingly having little to no knowledge of spirits, cocktails, beer or wine this joker has amassed a huge following. Imagine if he actually put out quality informed content.
@@brandtsweet ah my bad didn't know that. Btw can you recommend some beers for the winter that don't rip the wallet? You seem to know enough about beers
@@All-Outta-BubblegumWhat the hell happened to your tastebuds, the Foreign Extra Stout is godly! As is the West Indies Porter. Both a touch stronger too. This is coming from a Irishman who rarely has Guinness not on draught (but I do prefer Beamish at a push).
Yeah you really gotta find the right pub in the UK for it to be any good. I think part of it is how few are poured letting it settle in the pipes too much. Got no actual evidence of that though. Even the best guiness I've had in England (Mulligans of Manchester) was not close to the best pints in Dublin.
Which US laws specifically? I'm doubtful because there are tons of beers available and even brewed in the US which are neither pasteurized nor filtered. Either there's no law, or ~95% of the breweries I've had beer from in the last decade are all breaking it.
@@SpaceCowboy57 Law is something like beers under 8% abv need to be pasteurized because the alcohol isn't enough to prevent bacteria growth. It's a FDA rule.
Guinness is an acquired taste! You have to drink it alot to appreciate it! I hated it the first few times, started to like it a bit after some times, now i LOVE it specially if its from a tap in a bar and not the can!
@@GodOfLovers1111 yeah some people surely do like it the first time..... But many people dont like it the first time! But TBH, i think it just depends on the person!
I liked it from the getgo. But that's because I hadn't acquired the taste of regular beer yet as I was fairly young, so tasting Guinness was a very pleasant surprise since I was only drinking beer to hang out with my beer drinking friends.
I just got back from a vacation in Scotland and Ireland where I was drinking mostly Guinness the whole time. In America my go to beer is a bottled Budweiser. (I know it’s not the best by any means, but I just love it as an easy to drink lager.) during my entire visit in Scotland and Ireland I did not see Guinness searched in a bottle or can. Only draught. They say Guinness tastes better in Ireland, (which I think is true). I also think that Budweiser tastes better in America. I ordered it twice (bottled, not draught) at night clubs and it was terrible. I’m back in NY drinking a bud right now and it’s delicious.
Take it from an Irish person, a Pint of Guinness is different pre 1990 and post 1990, Diageo who own the brand basically change the recipe to cater for the younger professional class with disposable income in their pockets. Its horrible now, I drink draft independent stout now or Guinness original, Nigerian stout.
Nope. Guinness and Grand Metropolitan merged in 1997 to form Diageo. Dublin brewed Guinness never recently changed their recipe until 2015, when they stopped using fish bladders (isinglass) to fine the beer, to be vegan friendly. I never noticed a change in the taste, I doubt it made a difference.
I've been to Ireland in college, the best way I can describe the difference is like Krispy Kreme American Guiness is like buying a box of Krispy Kreme from Walmart. It'll scratch the itch but it's not a true experience Guinness, especially poured fresh from the tap in Dublin, is like walking into a Krispy Kreme with the hot light on and getting fresh, hot donuts right off the conveyor
Pretty sure it’s because of the spring water that’s used when brewing not many country’s have similar spring water to Ireland that’s why in some country’s it tastes better compared to others
I am a kid and I like watching your content and I know what your thinking, I am not gonna underage drink alcohol because I know it's wrong but your content is still good
True Irish Guinness is amazing. I've always been a fan. When i was Navy, I did an IA to Afghanistan. Our flight had a 7 hour layover in Shannon, Ireland. A few if my Navy buddies and I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to actually have a Guinness in Ireland! I seriously giggled after the first sip!
More than likely any difference in flavor perception is due to water chemistry differences. Dublin has exceptionally hard water that is balanced by the acidity in roasted barley that's added as a flavoring and coloring ingredient. The usage of water local to their US domestic brewery likely has much less water hardness. Importing water from Dublin or adjusting for water chemistry would raise the price of inputs and lead to less sales volume. The majority of fermentable sugars would come from a much paler malt. This used to be the same for Munich brewers until pilsners and advances in water chemistry allowed them to brew paler beers to compete. Guinness did not seem to have these concerns. Also as many commenters have pointed out, nitrogen is quite heavy and you can pour at a much steeper angle than with traditional beers that lack the nitrogenated treatment.
@@davidlittle7182 First of all....I never took it seriously. It was a joke. You know...The reason I put "Lol" at the end?😁 Secondly... It's technically owned by a multinational corporation whose main headquarters is in London, but it's still made at the same brewery, called St. James Gate I think, since 1759. But just because the multinational corporation is headquartered in London, with other offices all over the world, doesn't necessarily make it an English company. But yeah...Like I said, it was a joke anyways.
@@thelegendinhisownmind7038 it's an English company, with it's headquarters registered in London.

Are you sure the one on the left isn't cola? 🤔 I mean, even England has a reputation for having Guinness that doesn't quite live up to its Irish equivalent, but it at least *resembles* Guinness...
The local parish over here in Ireland recently got a new priest from Cameroon and he never stops singing the praises of the Guinness from his home - ours is so weak in comparison apparently! I'd nearly be scared to try the Guinness he's on about, sounds like it's strong enough to stand on 😂
@@RuailleBuaille Yes apparently when they tried Guinness they thought it was nice but a bit weak so a stronger one was made. Haven't tried it myself yet but have heard it's another level
Went to the Guiness “factory” in Ireland and had a few at their bar, noticed no difference to Guiness on draft in the US. Can’t speak to the difference in cans, but the “American” can you tried in the video was definitely too old - that is not normal to have it served flat like that! You can check the dates on the can/box serial number - only drink Guiness that’s max 2 years old.
He's deliberately pouring it incorrectly. Also, he only showed the first can being opened, which is suspicious. The difference in taste that he's describing is basically what Guiness tastes like once it goes flat vs. when it actually has nitrogen in it.
@@lochlainnmckenzie5569 I put it "factory" in quotes because I knew that wasn't the right name but forgot the real one - thx for the reminder! I went a few months ago as part of a bigger trip all around Europe... sampled a lot of beer in a lot of countries!
Yeah total BS video to make the American version look bad. He intentionally opened it before the video and let it get flat. I’ve never had a Guinness that poured like that.
Just a tip, you need to use a Guinness pint glass when pouring a pint of Guinness. The glass is designed specifically for Guinness and actually helps with the pour and taste 👍
If your in Dublin go to one of the most popular tourist sites in the world-the Guinness Storehouse. At the end you get a pint poured the way it should be.

Perfect head is something only an ex can give. You never keep that one for some reason
@@jonnyrubberfistLMAO
Especially with nitrogen infused liquids like the Draught Stout, you pour it hard and watch the bubbles go
@@jonnyrubberfistDamn, you just simply threw out a deep thought I’ve had for years 😂I’m glad someone else thinks the same
When i worked in a bar we once had a guiness rep come in for a bunch of things like installing some new gear etc but while there she showed us how to decant a can of guiness and especially she opened it put it down flipped the glass upside down on top of the can then flipped the whole thing back around and slowly pulled the can up keeping it about 2cm above the water line until the can was empty
The two-part-pour is only when pouring from the tap, when pouring from a can you need to open it and get the Guinness from the can into the glass basically as fast as you can in one go. It’s common to open the can then immediately tip it upside down into the glass and raise it as the glass fills being careful not to touch the can against the surface of the Guinness.
Quick is best. if you crack it and wait too long before pouring, it will often foam out of the can.
There is a special ball in Guinness cans to help draught properly when poured directly upside down.
The misinformation going crazy here.
Firstly, that “special ball” is called a widget, it stores pressurized nitrogen that releases when the can is opened, which helps fizz up the beer so that you can get some proper heard ( 😉).
Secondly, because of the widget, pouring from the can is basically the same as the tap, and Guinness even has official instructions that tell you to do that ( the instructions are included with the nitro surge accessory and is labeled Guinness’s Official best way to pour ).
Another note to keep in mind, the reason you want to have a head on your pint, is because the head keeps it carbonated for way longer than no head.
Tarraignt do ceann amach as do thóin 😂
The two part pour was a marketing ploy and literally does nothing. It was to make people think your getting something special. It's all a con.
@@rexoid0800that’s wrong mate, the two part pour is specifically for the settling of the Guinness before topping up for a perfect dome head.

And tap Guinness is far better than the canned Guinness, I was in Ireland in my early 20s, 15 or so years ago and It was so good I must of had 10 pints that night. I can still remember that taste and I woke up next to an Irish bbw in my room the next morning and she took me to her mother’s home for a full Irish breakfast. Had a blast in Ireland but just never went back maybe someday.

He didn't even do the test legit. Dude staged the whole thing.
Do they still put those balls in them?
Yup… the American can was definitely flawed.
It's not just about the foam. I can't speak for america but i've tried irish and australian guinness and the irish guiness was far superior.
@@benjamincoram7036 The foam is an indication of the level of carbonation/nitronation in the beer. As someone mentioned, the widget inside the can sometimes malfunctions and doesn’t properly nitronate the beer. It happens sometimes in both Irish cans and American cans.
In this case, it looked like the American can malfunctioned.
Also, even in Ireland, some pubs are known to have “good” Guinness and some pubs are known to have “bad” Guinness. Guinness is a very temperamental beer, if you can even call it a beer.

Trust me on this I'm from Ireland and that's the only way to pour Guinness from a can.
100%
A thick head is a good thing, that’s why bartenders never pour down the side of a glass. You don’t want those bubbles in your tummy bloating you
I wonder if the American can has a widget? If they don't allow Kinder eggs then this might also be banned... might explain why it's so flat looking.🤔
@@gohabs8918That goes against how most Americans drink their beer. I bartended at a chain restaurant, nothing too serious, and always had someone complain I was “cheating them out of beer” if it had a head on it.

I took my son to Dublin, Ireland when he was 20. He had tased Guinness before while on campus. But, we took a tour of the Guinness Brewery and had a complimentary Guinness. We haven’t had a Guinness since! There is no comparison that a U.S. Guinness can come close to the taste of an original Irish Guinness.
I just wish he included the expiration or bottling dates for each as that can play a significant part in the comparison.
I love Guinness, but sometimes the pint cans are flat af
This is the difference. The “US” one is probably 4-6 months old. The one from Ireland might be just a couple weeks old.
Biggest mistake I ever made was visiting the brewery in Dublin. Once you've tasted Guinness in Dublin it absolutely ruins Guinness at home for at least a year😢
Yep this is true
Only a year???
@kiernoify depends where you live and how far the Guinness needs to travel or where it's brewed, I guess.....
@@ET-jv1wm I was thinking that too but the Guinness had to both make to America in the video
There's many beers from Europe in America that taste much better in Europe. Americans somehow can make anything taste like shit
They are made in the same factory, but for exported cans they have a different formula so that they last a lot longer. It even tastes better in pubs the closer to the brewery
The best pints of Guinness I've had was from the factory and a pub in Galway 😁
Guinness is made in Ireland, but the American stuff is canned in UK after they shipped over the Guinness in syurp form and mixed in the UK.
Different countries have different alcoholic strengths too - in Nigeria it's (was?) 6%.
Irish Guinness is completely different from any other country’s version. It’s made completely differently. In England, the pubs often import Irish Guinness for the Irish when they come over for the horse racing.
I drink canned American Guiness poured into a glass and sometimes the Nitro ball aka "widget" doesn't activate as well as it should. So the foam amount will likely vary between American cans. "Freshness" also probably has something to do with it
Yes agreed, I have Guinness on draft in Ireland, Europe and also usa, Ireland is like you say night and day better in their guiness, it's depressing knowing I'll never get the.full experience again :(
It's essential to have the can well chilled. Also, you may have been confused/misinformed about the 120 seconds and the second pour. That's to do with draught pints, not cans. You pour the full can down the side of the glass, and when the brown fuzz stops rolling up the glass it's cooked. Sláinte! Maith an fear! ☘️
It's crazy how much better it even looks
Any time I've poured an American Guinness it looked just like the Irish one.
I'm sure how long it's been in the can plays a part.
The American version looked flat I’m a bartender and I pour thousands of canned beers and that didn’t look right at all. Such bias for views.

Guys, if your ever in Ireland, ask for a pint of Murphys, in my opinion it tastes much nicer and smoother than Guinness and it well worth a try.
But yeah Guinness is the nicest when its in Ireland, i thought the exported stuff would taste the same, but it seems to taste different in every country.
Guinness varies even in Ireland generally you want to get into the countryside where there's an old fashioned pub the taps are slower than in big cities and it generally tastes better. I've lived in Ireland my entire life all I do is drink Guinness when I'm out so I know what truly great Guinness is. Generally once you leave Ireland the quality just goes down there's only one place that I've gone to abroad that could pass as a decent pint in Ireland and that is Mulligan's in Manchester in England. I've been everywhere too I've drank Guinness in every country I've been to.
Try Nigerian Guinness. Tastes like irish Guinness did forty years ago. Lovely.
Is it really strong like 7%?
yeahh its 7.5% lol @@ianskelly6911

The Nigerian one is horrible
Guinness always tastes like it has soy sauce in it no matter where it’s from
Im english and had hundreds of guniesses over here from cans and taps and I went to Belfast and the difference is insane a fresh guiness from a pub over there is undefeated
Guinness does have a brewery in MD in the states but most of the standard classic Guinness draught and Extra Stout is imported from Ireland. That said is also the real big reason for change in taste, simply it just sit in can and bottle longer being exported over long distances it maybe months before that can cracked whereas your beer may have been brewed not even a week ago in Ireland. Just a huge time difference in distribution. That's really the key in difference.
ty
No fuckin shit it’s an Irish beer
@Moisty_boii you're real fun at parties, huh?
@@Merfraxthis guy stinks!
You can indeed get imported Guinness in the US and it does oftentimes sit too long so it’s not an optimal solution. I’m not sure why you have the idea that the standard Guinness draught and Extra Stout is coming from Ireland- I’ve visited both facilities multiple times and certainly the draught that you get in the US is coming from the Baltimore facility these days. It definitely tastes different, but it also seems like he didn’t pour the American version properly.
The Irish Guinness has a widget in the can. This creates the head.
Also, the export Guinness is a slightly different brew with a different alcohol percentage and slightly other variations of the ingredients in it.
At least, that's what the people of the brewery told when I went on a tour there.
wait they don't have that in the states?
I'm Canadian, cans of Guinness sold here have the widget as well. I suspect those sold in America also have it, at least the one I had last week in Phoenix did. I question his take on the American can considering we didn't see him open that one, nor know how long it sat before he poured it.
Non alcoholic Guinness has the widget here in the US. Just bought a pack to celebrate 6 months sober (love the flavor)
@@DaAngyBeanwell done man
Either the American version was old/defective, or you really got a junky version there because I didn't see ANY of that nitrogen bubbling that you usually get when you pour a Guinness from a can.
The way he pours it along side the glass is the reason for the lack of bubbles.
@@picklechin2716the Irish one was poured the same though and had bubbles
I didn't hear the nitrogen capsule go off in the "American" version think it was a bad capsule so it altered the flavor but i can say it is a mild taste difference since I've had both but not enough to be a determining factor
@@picklechin2716The nitrogen capsule literally didn't go off. He had a defective can.

I didn’t make it to Ireland, but England and Scotland pubs have guiness and The difference when I got home almost made me cry.
Yeah you really gotta find the right pub in the UK for it to be any good. I think part of it is how few are poured letting it settle in the pipes too much. Got no actual evidence of that though.

I just got back from a vacation in Scotland and Ireland where I was drinking mostly Guinness the whole time. In America my go to beer is a bottled Budweiser. (I know it’s not the best by any means, but I just love it as an easy to drink lager.) during my entire visit in Scotland and Ireland I did not see Guinness searched in a bottle or can. Only draught. They say Guinness tastes better in Ireland, (which I think is true). I also think that Budweiser tastes better in America. I ordered it twice (bottled, not draught) at night clubs and it was terrible. I’m back in NY drinking a bud right now and it’s delicious.
Take it from an Irish person, a Pint of Guinness is different pre 1990 and post 1990, Diageo who own the brand basically change the recipe to cater for the younger professional class with disposable income in their pockets. Its horrible now, I drink draft independent stout now or Guinness original, Nigerian stout.
I drank Guinness in Ireland in 1989 and it was incredible. How horrible that someone changed that.
Agree!
Nope. Guinness and Grand Metropolitan merged in 1997 to form Diageo. Dublin brewed Guinness never recently changed their recipe until 2015, when they stopped using fish bladders (isinglass) to fine the beer, to be vegan friendly. I never noticed a change in the taste, I doubt it made a difference.
I've been to Ireland in college, the best way I can describe the difference is like Krispy Kreme
American Guiness is like buying a box of Krispy Kreme from Walmart. It'll scratch the itch but it's not a true experience
Guinness, especially poured fresh from the tap in Dublin, is like walking into a Krispy Kreme with the hot light on and getting fresh, hot donuts right off the conveyor

Having just got back from a 2 week trip to Ireland. It does indeed taste dramatically different, and I don't know why lol
It’s like American and Mexican coke
US is pasteurized.
Pretty sure it’s because of the spring water that’s used when brewing not many country’s have similar spring water to Ireland that’s why in some country’s it tastes better compared to others
All about the water
But he said they both come from same brewery so it should be same water and everything ingredient wise.

True Irish Guinness is amazing. I've always been a fan. When i was Navy, I did an IA to Afghanistan. Our flight had a 7 hour layover in Shannon, Ireland. A few if my Navy buddies and I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to actually have a Guinness in Ireland! I seriously giggled after the first sip!
Beamish is better
More than likely any difference in flavor perception is due to water chemistry differences. Dublin has exceptionally hard water that is balanced by the acidity in roasted barley that's added as a flavoring and coloring ingredient. The usage of water local to their US domestic brewery likely has much less water hardness. Importing water from Dublin or adjusting for water chemistry would raise the price of inputs and lead to less sales volume. The majority of fermentable sugars would come from a much paler malt. This used to be the same for Munich brewers until pilsners and advances in water chemistry allowed them to brew paler beers to compete. Guinness did not seem to have these concerns.
Also as many commenters have pointed out, nitrogen is quite heavy and you can pour at a much steeper angle than with traditional beers that lack the nitrogenated treatment.
All canned Guinness in the US is from Ireland.
And I also heard that they send the worst batches to England. Lol!

Next stop is Ireland for an authentic Guinness 🤝
Went to the Guiness “factory” in Ireland and had a few at their bar, noticed no difference to Guiness on draft in the US. Can’t speak to the difference in cans, but the “American” can you tried in the video was definitely too old - that is not normal to have it served flat like that!
You can check the dates on the can/box serial number - only drink Guiness that’s max 2 years old.
He's deliberately pouring it incorrectly. Also, he only showed the first can being opened, which is suspicious.
The difference in taste that he's describing is basically what Guiness tastes like once it goes flat vs. when it actually has nitrogen in it.
It is the Guiness “Storehouse” not factory. If you’re wondering why it wasn’t more like a “factory” that’s probs why.
@@lochlainnmckenzie5569 I put it "factory" in quotes because I knew that wasn't the right name but forgot the real one - thx for the reminder! I went a few months ago as part of a bigger trip all around Europe... sampled a lot of beer in a lot of countries!
Yeah total BS video to make the American version look bad. He intentionally opened it before the video and let it get flat. I’ve never had a Guinness that poured like that.
it is very different, and many of the master brewers don't give canned Guinness above 3/5...maybe worse for the bottled stuff with a widget
Just a tip, you need to use a Guinness pint glass when pouring a pint of Guinness. The glass is designed specifically for Guinness and actually helps with the pour and taste 👍
If your in Dublin go to one of the most popular tourist sites in the world-the Guinness Storehouse. At the end you get a pint poured the way it should be.
