    The extra stout and foreign extra stout are my favorite beers by far. I rarely ever venture away from them. Maybe a yuengling once in a while since I dont live far from the yuengling brewery. But I've always been a porter/stout guy. Great history lesson. Well done !

    I believe that the "nitro" Guinness that I first enjoyed at The White Lion Pub in Ramsey, England in 1971, was the finest example of the brewers art that I had ever experienced. It took about 3 minutes to tapapinta..The glass cost 50P but was slid over the bar with ice crystals distributed throughout the living brownish black serving. I am still very much a fan of the pint , even today.

    I never met a Guinness l didn't like. I have always said Guinness is like mother's milk to me. The draught is one l could drink all day, the extra stout is indeed just that but also very enjoyable. I don't normally care for IPA beers but Guinness IPA is the exception.

  • @gary637

    Guinness was based on a Welsh porter. The stagecoach from London to Dublin passed through there, where Guinness stopped for the night before travelling on. The Irish boycotted the drink as it was deemed 'Protestant Porter'. But the drink owes its success to the British Empire where the foreign extra style is still enjoyed in the Caribbean. I prefer the Original Guinness myself, rather than the watery exported creamy stuff passed off as Guinness in English pubs.
