Guinness Foreign Extra Stout

Until recently the foreign extra stout was only a myth. Ya whatever, a strong version of Guinness. This beer is probably exported elsewhere because it tastes boring. It recently became available in the US; hopefully Canada will follow soon.


Guinness Foreign Extra Stout= 9/10

Holy Crap! This is an unexpected surprise. The nose eludes to something special: treacle, muddled berries and milk chocolate. It's thick: thick like my inbred cousin from the bayou. And whoa, even Keanu was not this rich. Massive washes of potent crushed berries, dark chocolate and whole fat milk never cease their onslaught. You might need a toothbrush to remove the lingering of chocolate coated coffee beans. Try this beer; you will not be disappointed.
