Guinness Smooth is a lighter and more approachable stout from the Guinness family, crafted to offer a smoother, creamier mouthfeel while retaining the signature roasted notes of traditional Guinness. It’s specially brewed for markets like Kenya, Nigeria, and Uganda, where consumers prefer a less bitter, more sessionable stout.
The beer pours a dark ruby-black with a creamy, tan head. The aroma presents gentle roasted malt, light coffee, and subtle sweetness. On the palate, it’s silky and mellow, with notes of chocolate, toffee, and mild bitterness. The body is medium-light compared to Guinness Foreign Extra, making it perfect for drinkers who enjoy depth without the heaviness or sharp bite.
