"Can't tell you where it's brewed" means it's almost definitely brewed at a massive contract brewery in continental Europe that brews the same beer for loads of pubs/bars etc, letting them rename or brand it as they like. Its the same for any pub that has an own brand beer on but doesn't have a brewery on site or isn't explicitly linked to/owned by a brewery. I've met a lot of brewers & been to a lot of breweries and they are not secretive about how they make their beer, if anything you can't shut them up talking about it.
You're talking out your hole, why would a pub import a house beer from Europe. The black forge could go down the street to Drimnagh and get a house beer from Rascals and brand it however they want.

Tried Islands Edge the other day . Weird pint . Starts off stout , then the swallow is more beer/lager in the final downing. Needless to say Guinness isn’t under any pressure!
In fairness the guy wouldn't know a good pint of stout if it was forced down his gob. Coffee, chocolate, roasted notes are a bad thing to him, the mind boggles.
I think you need to clear your head of any misconceptions you may have about new beers you're tasting. Judging by the look on your face it sounded like you were talking yourself out of liking it before you tried it. They'll be those that will like it over Guinness, one man's tiple isn't always another man's fancy. As someone has mentioned, maybe keep a different tally for 'other' stouts?
Islands Edge is Tea infused reducing the bitterness not roast coffee - little bit info for ye. Good video! You lashed those pints down like an animal, fair play.
Not saying he's one but how he glub glubs the beer down is very much reminiscent of how alcoholics drink beer. I'm not much of a drinker myself so I can't imagine the taste of all that beer going down yuck..
I'd love to see a leaderboard or something similar where you've a list of every Guinness you've tried and their ratings from high to low. Hope you have a wee notebook recording the scores down ;)
It's mad to me you've never had Beamish. To me, it's vastly superior to Guinness, and way older as well. But sadly very few pubs still pull pints of it, it's mostly relegated to cans. They do exist though. Given how anti-Irish Arthur Guinness was, it's a shame his stout took the lead over Beamish as an icon of this island.
@@paul479 There was no Home Rule movement during Arthur Guinness's time. He was a supporter of Henry Grattan, however, and would have been involved to some extent with the Volunteers of the late 1770s.

Yeh if you can get over the roasted coffee flavours... the taste of a decent stout.. if you can get over that you might be able to drink it.. Sounds good to me
Can someone explain to me how each Guinness is any different? I thought they were all brewed the same so how does it make sense to review different pints?
pints vary quite a lot, if you dont mind the taste its about the glass, the condensation, temperature, the amount of head. the pint itself can be quite watery or taste like its been sitting in a dirty puddle for way too long.
And you'll notice this if you have a few Guinness at different pubs and bars. If it's a serious pub who knows what they're doing they'll have creamy, dark, rich, roasted Guinness on tap. Any old bar and it'll taste like it's been cut with water and left to sit for a month. It's like the difference between getting a Coke in a glass bottle and the Coke you get from the dispenser in a cinema or at McDonald's
I have tryed guiness so many times tap, can, bottle you name it. But the best i ever had was one at a German pub close to the Denmark/Germany border it makes canned guiness taste like garbage.

Depends on how clean the lines glasses are and da way it’s poured there can be a huge difference between pubs
