I do love a good pint of Guinness. There's something very satisfying about how it looks; the more pronounced flavor than other globally available macro beers, and how it seems easier to have a few more than it would be with other beers.
- vikingerik 3y agoWhy it's easier to have more: despite the darkness and thick head that make it look and feel so, well, stout, Guinness is actually fairly light in calories and alcohol content, at just 4.2%.
- glxxyz 3y agoCertain people still insist on joking about it being a 'meal' almost every time I drink one though.
- dekhn 3y agoI love Guinness (their nitro cans are surprisingly good for canned beer) but I really love the various Sam Smith stouts. It took me quite a while to realize I hate hops, and love roasted malt flavors, as well as "chocolatey" flavors.
- glxxyz 3y agoI've come to hate hops over the last 20 years or so as overpoweringly flowery and/or bitter IPAs and pale ales have become more popular. I like just enough hops to balance the sweetness of the malt. For me hops are like salt in food- a little used carefully is great, but too much quickly becomes disgusting.
