The classic, crisp Irish stout that started it all

A sharp and crisp expression of the classic Irish stout, featuring deep roasted barley notes and a refreshing carbonated bite. It balances bittersweet cocoa flavors with a clean, dry finish that stands out from the draft version.

The story behind it

The maker

Founded by Arthur Guinness in 1759, the brewery signed a legendary 9,000-year lease on its St. James's Gate property. Over more than two and a half centuries, Guinness has grown from a local Dublin porter brewery into a global icon of brewing excellence, famous for its pioneering science and marketing.

How it is made

Brewed at the historic St. James's Gate Brewery in Dublin, this style is descended from the archival recipes of the brewery's original porter first exported in 1801. It is crafted using high-quality Irish malted barley, hops, and a signature roasted barley that gives it its iconic dark color.
