#15: Guinness: Extra Stout

Guinness: Extra Stout
Ireland
Holy Moley that’s a dark Conolly. Man, I haven’t been slapped by a beer in the face for a long time. Seems like this beer is made from 100% hops. As much as I love Guinness I just couldn’t get into this. Especially since I professed my love for a fruity beer not too long ago. Clearly you see where my beer balls lie.
This beer is pitch black and it tastes just like it’s color. Almost like this beer was brewed from the darkness of a vindictive man’s heart. If you took rejection and turned into beer this would be it. Upon first sip all you taste is bitterness, as if you pissed off this beer by opening it. This is probably the type of strong stuff the men in Ireland drink and call it weak. I am not even man enough to stomach half a bottle of this darkness. I always had a dream of going to Ireland and having a beer in a real McCoy pub in some cozy town…you know, the sort of stuff hardened Irish guys drink…seems like a bad idea to do that now. Bad enough I’d be a tourist there, but to be a tourist and uncontrollably piss your pants after one swig of their finest beer, that is the stuff tourist ass-kickings are made of.
So clearly I am not up to snuff for this beer. I wanted to enjoy it, I really did, seeing as how other stuff from Guinness brewers impressed me. I don’t see my opinion changing on this beer anytime soon either. Maybe in a environment with other friends, maybe then I would put on my big-boy pants and show some hair. At home, nope.
Let’s go to our guest. This is the last of our guests joining us, for now.
S: I really like it. Nice grown up beer. Definitely try again. Stop being such a pussy and drink the rest of your beer.
Pair it with: Testicles, Sweets, experience with beers.
