In celebration of St. Patty's day, I figured I'd go Irish without being too typical and drinking Guinness.

This is a pretty typical Irish dry stout, which I'm not a big fan of.

Pours nearly opaque brown with a creamy nitro can head.

Smells like watered down coffee.

Tastes like a typical irish dry stout...kinda bland, too bitter for the lack of flavor.

Fells thin, but smooth.

It's pretty drinkable, tho, due to its lack of flavor.

Like I said, I'm not a big fan of Irish dry stout, so I'm not thrilled by this beer. It's ok, once a year, but not something I'd drink a lot.

Serving type: nitro-can

Tasted this in various pubs in Cork, Ireland. Be sure to drink this in pubs like the Welcome Inn to get the full Irish experience.

Lots more taste than Guinness. And yes, it is better than Murphy's.

That said, Guinness is ok for a night of drinking, but Beamish is Stout how it's ment to be.

Buy it. Buy it now.

Serving type: on-tap
