Guinness — which will be featured next week since we are headed to Dublin on Friday — is the most famous Irish beer. Yet, there are other popular Irish stouts worth including in our hunt for the best beer in the world.
Irish stouts, also known as dry stouts, are very dark beers with low levels of carbonation. The characteristic toasted, coffee-like flavor comes from roasted barley and lots of hops. Rich with its iconic, creamy foam, Irish stouts are top fermented.
On Friday night Kevin had a pint of Beamish, which he quite enjoyed. It was full-bodied, but not too bitter. Stay tuned to see how it compares with what he is able to taste in Ireland.
