Citrus DessertsThe finish was the deciding point for me with Guinness Original Stout. I liked the mild citrus edge; the light bitterness made it feel complete rather than heavy. One of the more enjoyable options I've tried in this category.
dry - fizzy - refreshingI had mixed expectations for Guinness Original Stout. The idea of soft grainy sweetness was there, but the carbonation felt harsh. The balance felt off from start to finish.
malty - refreshing - dryThe bottle worked best in a cold glass. There was enough bready malt note to keep me interested, even though the body felt watery.
