Guinness is the worst stout I’ve ever had. I’m sure out of a Dublin tap it’s an entirely different beast, but out of a bottle in the middle of the US it is horse piss.

It is. there are different recipes for different markets.

When I first tried it in Dublin, it was amazingly delicious! Never liked it before that! 🐶🐾🫡

Oh yeah, totally!!

Even in London it’s not the same as in Dublin, at least that was a thing in the nineties :-)

My wife studied abroad in Ireland and made we wait to try it until we went there together. This unfortunately is the only way.

At the risk of being a traitor to my surname/heritage, I concur.

I didn't think it was that bad. Take one over all the hipster IPA bullshit

I think I’d rather drink horse piss than any hoppy IPA so I am with you there.

But bourbon barrel aged stouts like KBS or Dragon’s Milk are my favorites. I also enjoy a good Russian Imperial Stout like Old Rasputin.

But any stout that Founders Brewing Company makes is at least 5x better than bottled Guinness for my tastes.

Thank you for the recommendations
