Question:

Beer question. Actually I don't like beer but when I have ordered it I found that?

Guiness was so smooth that I actually almost like it. Does anyone know why this might be other than personal taste? Do they make it with something different than other beers or... Serious question not a commercial!

Answers:

Great Guinness is world class beer.

It is smooth for a couple of reasons.
1. The body of the beer: Guinness uses roasted malts that impart a smooth rich and complex mouth-feel. The notes coffee,deep roasted nuts, and any you find specific in your taste analysis.

2. It is lightly carbonated: as with most continental beers Guinness does not push the carbonation threshold to over produce carbonic acid. Unfortunately, many many beers in the USA does. In addition in certain package (this relates to carbonation) Guinness employs nitrogen to help created a rich head.

Note: Bud Dry is not the most alcoholic beer in the USA. Many examples that contain a higher level of alcohol include, Anchor's Old Foghorn, Sierra Nevada's Big Foot Barleywine, and Boston Beer Company has at least two beers; Samuel Adams Triple Bock and Optimus-the strongest beer in the world. There are other examples of strong-stronger beers.

***Guinness is an ale. Guinness is a stout style ale and not a lager as suggested by some-one here.
