Beer Advocate Review #248




Beer:
Malta Guinness
Brewery: Guinness Nigeria PLC
Style: Non-Alcoholic
ABV: O%
Serving: Bottle

Poured from a 330ml. bottle, best before 11-07-11.

Appearance: Not much of the Guinness cascade but it's still very nice looking. Brown-black body with a milk chocolate/cola head that is bubbly and holds steady quite a while at 2 fingers. Lots of lacing also.

Smell: Black-strap molasses and nuts. Not too sweet.

Taste: Sweet but very restrained. Slight metallic twang.

Mouthfeel: Pickly at first then thins out. Body is surprisingly light. Not bad but could be fuller.

Drinkability: I like it but it's average and i've had better for cheaper.

Overall: A novelty Guinness that is a bit expensive and doesn't quite deliver on the taste side.
