When the weather starts to get cold and rainy, Guinness Draught is my go to! Guinness draught is like coffee, Guinness Extra Stout is like espresso. Have a Extra first, then follow it with a few cans of Draught 🍻
Watching this video made me want stout that I recently just stumbled upon... OMG I am in love with the dark smooth taste that it has. It's fall, sweater weather, and drinking an extra stout at home is the most beautiful thing ever....besides corned beef.
@@robertjones4735 - when i am in the mood for a guiness, i want the full bodied experience, and only buy draught, when that is all that is available; always regrettable...
Guinness extra stout has a crisper strong beer and that bite is amazing goes down very smooth the smell gets me very excited to drink you guys do a great review love the channel and content keep up the great work
If I wanna get drunk and can't stomach another miller lite, I'll go with Guinness Draught. if I'm trying to have a delicious beer experience like no other, I'ma take 2-3 extra stouts then switch to something lighter.
Love the review and its content. I’m no beer expert but my personal thoughts and preferences after decades of Guinness drinking specifically...I would add the occasion as a factor. Draught is for drinking around strangers at social events when you are being on your good behavior. Extra Stout is when you want to just drink all night with your friends and adult family at your favorite spot. The draught should be thought of like a Guinness Light to remind you to drink it during the day time until dinner. Drink the Extra Stout when the kids have gone home to bed. Draught is more like smooth Guinness heaven water after a couple and its a good starter. The extra stout seems to hold itself together still after several and will keep you at a leisurely pace all night long. I expect my family and friends to bury me with some of both for the long walk home.
Thank you so much for the kind words my friend! You are absolutely correct that the occasion plays into a beer experience so much. Even though some critics could argue that the Extra stout is a "superior beer" in terms of character, flavour, etc, it's the experience of having a draught and the occasion of it all, having a well poured pint at a pub, that will always make it better in our minds.
That’s what I thought kinda lol… the draught was so thick that I couldn’t drink it fast but it was more about the taste. Even if I wanted to chug them, I don’t think I could but at a social event I could see myself drinking 4 of these slowly getting a light buzz and enjoying the taste
Sorry to bother y’all. But have you done one on coors banquet can vs. bottle? I only ask because I can swear there is a big difference in the experience between the two, at least in the original receptacle.
I was buying my weekly Guinness when I ran into a guy who loved Guinness Extra Stout. He said he couldn't do the Draught. I had the only Extra Stouts the store had, so I placed both of them in his cart and grabbed the Draught because I love both. He was surprised with such a young buck liking Guinness.
One wonders what a non-nitro Guinness Draught would taste like. Or a nitrogenated Extra Stout... Time to flex those Diageo connections, guys. I've actually been on an Extra Stout kick lately after pairing it with a homemade Gambian meal, as it is apparently one of the most popular beers in The Gambia.
That's awesome! What was the meal? It's really interesting how the Extra Stout and the Foreign Extra stouts are some of the most popular beers in places like the Carribean and West Africa. Lots of fun history there behind it.
@@BeerBrackets the meal I made was dodama, also known as maafe. The strong flavor of the stout paired great with the hearty stew and slight funk from the use of fish sauce.
Lads, loved your review on the draught and the extra stout and l am hard press but most likely lean towards the draft. Now l tried the Guinness foreign extra stout @ 7.5 ABV in a 11.2 0z bottle and was blown away! IMO this is by far the best of the 3 With a strong note of chocolate and dried figs albeit not being boozy. Sipping this is way better than drinking the draft. It gives you All the flavors that the other 2 have but more intense. It’s like this is what Guinness is supposed to taste like. Love your reviews and keep up the good work!
Thanks for the very kind words Michael! So happy to hear you’ve gotten a kick out of the episodes. Alessandro feels the same way, the foreign extra is his favorite. I can’t get it in Canada unfortunately , but did have the chance to try it with him in our Beer Brackets of the Month #10 episode. Cheers and thanks for watching! 🍻
The Foreign is almost TOO GOOD! I can't drink it on the regular AT ALL. After a couple I'll reach for an Extra Stout every single time..... but the wild cherry note is very startling the first time, isn't it?
Agreed! Unfortunately Alessandro is in Florida and I’m up in Canada. But we do film content together every once and a while whenever we’re able to. Thanks for watching!
Do you think that the fact that the draught is 4.2% abv while the extra stout is 5.6% abv. might have in some way influenced your rating of these beers? And for the record, I must go with the extra stout as my favorite. I also feel it makes a superior black and tan. Cheers!
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! I’m sure the abv plays a role in all the different rating categories, yeah. Whether or not it caused us to prefer one over the other, I don’t think that’s the case with these particular beers. But maybe! Both very delicious, that’s for sure.
They just started selling it at my local grocery story and the first week I got extra stout then the next week I got draught then this week I’m back at extra stout. I like both so far. I like that they are full bodied. I’m extremely use to drinking crisp beers. I liked the creaminess with draught and extra stout I like the taste like roasted and a hint of chocolate. I had to TH-cam this since I actually discovered this 3 weeks ago
The Extra Stout is much closer to the original Irish Stout recipe that Guiness made right up until the 2nd world war. The normal Guiness Draught is much more akin to an English Mild with added fizz - the toasted notes of a traditional stout are so muted as to be almost absent, and it's not strong enough to be called a traditional stout (i.e. stouter than a porter). Probably why Gen Z loves Guinness Draught - it is bland enough for them... [oh that will set off fire-works]
What is the difference between Guinness Foreign Extra Stout and Guinness stout? Guinness Foreign Extra Stout - Wikipedia First brewed by Guinness in 1801, FES was designed for export, and is more heavily hopped than Guinness Draught and Extra Stout, which gives it a more bitter taste, and typically has a higher alcohol content (at around 7.5% ABV).
A Guinness stout, a black (Guinness) and tan (Bass pale ale), and a Guinness draught, in that order. In the 80's, In New Orleans, at the end of St Charles Ave, Cooter Brown's Tavern (still there) called that triplet, Stayin'a'while. It had a higher ABV back then and the glass (actual 16 ounce pints) had a clover key engraved on the bottom. One of the bartenders had a 'lavatory key on a wooden ruler' that he'd put on the bar-back where you were sitting. We guessed that the way he turned it was letting him know what to pour next. When he placed it, the key was a different color than the back ground and on your second he would turn it and the key was the same color. On the third he would pretend to hand it to you and then tap the bar with it. It wasn't actually a key to the restroom. I think it had it's roots as 'to go pissing' in the old country meant to go bar hopping. Instead you were just sitting there instead of hopping, so you were just pissing and not going anywhere.
@@alanthomson1227 NONsense. If you can't understand context, you have a mental problem. They are referred to as black and tans with an s. I am Irish on my mothers side and 1/4 on my dads. No-one gets upset. It's shit you hear on the internet from someone trying to invent a victim. If we ran around worrying about offending someone, we wouldn't be able to speak at all. If you knew Irish ... insults are a form of being friendly. British slang would probably have you nuzzling a pillow in horror. You can start with where the word 'fan' comes from. It comes from a young girl that was murdered named Fanny Adams.
i just add that the prices are different - the extra stout at my supermarket is 50% more expensive then the draught, althought the draugth is 500cl, while the extra stout is 300ml, so we can say that extra stout is twice as expensive then the draught, at list where i buy my beers.
I've enjoyed the extra stout since I first found it in a college beer pub in San Luis Obispo when I was 20 in 1983. Cal Poly where the men are men and the women are men and the pigs and the sheep and the pigs run scared. Go Mustangs!
I love the white label and the yellow label extra stouts the draughts are...neat to watch the bubbles but I'm about that beautiful darkness the white label and yellow stout
I think canned or bottled draught always just tastes like a lesser version of a real on-tap Guinness, and so I’m always a bit disappointed by it. Whereas extra stout is fully its own different thing, and doesn’t feel like a lesser version. I pretty much exclusively get extra stout for home, but nothing beats a real Guinness at the pub
I think the extra stout has a more chocolate like flavor to it, so i love it, i jist literally had it for the first time and it made the draught the second pick for me.
It’s one of Alessandro’s favorites from Guinness! We can’t get it up here in Canada unfortunately, but I have tried it and it’s fantastic. Thanks for watching! 🍻
New Holland dragons milk bourbon barrel beer is a lot better than Guinness stout and draft very strong but very marshmellowy great tasting beer not sure if that helps you out
You can do extra stout 19.2 oz can vs extra stout bottle the taste is different. The bottle version has that bitterness like telling you just to let you nokw hay im bitterness just to let you Nokw im here
Thankfully Labatt stopped making it at some point since this was recorded, the LCBO in Ontario is now stocking the Dublin brewed Extra Stout instead. Tried it again and it's much better than the Labatt version.
I also sort of feel like it is kind of cheating with the nitrogen in the Draught, when it comes to ratings. I wonder how the nitrogen would be if added to other beers, or if it would only be a bonus in certain types of beer like guiness draught.
Hey Bill! You’re definitely right, which is why it’s just a fun comparison of two of their most popular products to see which one we like better. Have you ever tried a beer like Kilkenny? It’s a fun example of nitrogen being used with a different style other than stout.
I will admit draught if a good session beer and is basically designed for rugby fans who go out drinking all day on the day of a match / game. Otherwise extra is better in everyway.
The Extra Stout. NOT EVEN CLOSE. Most of the qualities you're ascribing to the draught ("pillowy", etc.) are simply a quality of the nitro capsule.... not the draught itself!
Draught is terrible. A weak, watery beer. Man I was so dissapointed when I first drank it. I expected so much more. Extra stout is pretty good. But craft beer stouts are better. At least here in Sweden.
I’m sorry but extra stout is the real Guinness and draught just takes like a fridge. There’s no comparison any day of the week, extra every time. Nitro beer is a crime against humanity 😉🙂 .
Intensity of flavor does not equal better. Beer is also about being refreshing and can be delicious even when mild in intensity. Extra stout is pallet fatiguing and overly bitter in an unbalanced way. Guinness draught is engineered to appeal to more people on average, hence it’s specific flavor profile, balance, and mouth feel. It is an objectively superior beer in this way.
@@eafowler777 I agree 100%. Having had both, and even from the tap. Draught is far, fary superior overall. Relaxing, soothing. Every sip is an experience for me, very smooth and comforting. I'm not reminded constantly it's booze, I only remember when I'm feeling good :)
I'm sorry, but someone's got to say it. Guinness stout - in all its many "variations" sucks. It is weak both in body and alcohol content, substituting foam and small amount of burned malt for flavor. That people continue to fall for this pale imitation of a beer shows just how little anyone knows about what a stout should taste like.
Loved the video, but just a bit of history (from an Irishman).. at 0:32 you state that the Vikings were the original settlers in Ireland. Far from it, in fact they were the second-LAST group to settle in Ireland (the Normans invaded in 1170). The Celts (pronounded "Kelts") arrived in Ireland many centuaries prior to the Vikings and they in turn displaced previous peoples who had been there since at least 3000BC. But still, great video!

In my taste, (mouthfeel, carbonation, depth, the works) extra stout

100%
The bright white color and tiny bubbles in the head of the draught version, along with its head retention is so great
SO great! Could not agree more
Extra stout feels a bit like a dunkel beer but very flavorful beer it creeps up on you very tasty and relaxing
Sorry to bother y’all. But have you done one on coors banquet can vs. bottle? I only ask because I can swear there is a big difference in the experience between the two, at least in the original receptacle.
Ask and you shall receive my friend. That is a great idea for a comparison. Thanks for watching and reaching out! Cheers
I watched this while drinking canned ice cold extra stout. Utterly delicious!
Yes!! Our reviews are always best enjoyed while tasting the beer yourself.
No beer should be ice cold. Lager is a different matter though and the confusion is because Americans call everything beer, including lager.

Dont pour in all of extra stout...everytime your about to drink just top of head
Pro tip!
Ive been drinking extra stout since 1988 and will always believe its the best
It’s fantastic!

💯 no matter what the format, they’ll never live up to the real way of drinking it which is on tap.
Draught is more carbonated. More fizzy. Stout is heavier and more flat in comparison but richer in taste. That said I prefer more bubbles
I think the extra stout has a more chocolate like flavor to it, so i love it, i jist literally had it for the first time and it made the draught the second pick for me.
It’s so good, right? If you can get your hands on the foreign extra stout (which I can’t in Canada ☹️) I’d recommend trying that one too.
Try Guinness Foreign Extra next as it much better than both the Extra and Draught stouts.
It’s one of Alessandro’s favorites from Guinness! We can’t get it up here in Canada unfortunately, but I have tried it and it’s fantastic. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Guinness Extra Stout is a Stout. Guinness Draught is a Guinness.
extra stout is more concentrated, then the draught, so it is like drinking strong espresso over a cappuccino.

Would have LOVED to but I can’t get it in Canada. I have tried it before though and it’s fantastic.

Thankfully Labatt stopped making it at some point since this was recorded, the LCBO in Ontario is now stocking the Dublin brewed Extra Stout instead. Tried it again and it's much better than the Labatt version.
Extra stout all the way
Have you ever tried the Foreign Extra Stout? If so, what did you think?

I will admit draught if a good session beer and is basically designed for rugby fans who go out drinking all day on the day of a match / game. Otherwise extra is better in everyway.
Love both, but I enjoy the Extra Stout so much more
It’s so delicious! What are some of your other favorites?
How about Guinness West Indies Porter vs Extra Stout?
I would loooove to, but the West Indies porter isn’t available here in Canada where I am. Still have never tried it!
The Extra Stout. NOT EVEN CLOSE. Most of the qualities you're ascribing to the draught ("pillowy", etc.) are simply a quality of the nitro capsule.... not the draught itself!
The nitro is an essential part of the draught.
I believe Extra Stout is closest to the original Guinness.
You’re absolutely right! It is
Original wins easily in my opinion
Can't go wrong with either! They're both top quality brews. Thanks for watching. Let us know some of your go-to beers, we'd love to hear from you.

Draught is terrible. A weak, watery beer. Man I was so dissapointed when I first drank it. I expected so much more. Extra stout is pretty good. But craft beer stouts are better. At least here in Sweden.
