Description

Guinness Draught Beer is a stout beer originating from Dublin, Ireland, recognized worldwide for its characteristic almost black dark color and its creamy, dense foam. This beer is made with roasted barley, hops, and high-quality water, fermented with special yeast for Guinness, which gives it a smooth, slightly bitter taste with notes of coffee and chocolate.

Guinness Draught was created in 1959 and quickly became an icon of Irish beer. Its unique process includes the addition of nitrogen gas, which provides its creamy texture and fine carbonation, different from traditional beers with carbon dioxide.

In the culinary context, Guinness Draught beer is a highly valued ingredient in recipes for stews, braises, and sauces, as it adds depth of flavor and a slight bitter touch that balances dishes with intense ingredients and red meats.

Properties: it contains antioxidants derived from roasted barley and is low in carbohydrates compared to other dark beers. Furthermore, its complex flavor profile makes it ideal for pairing with rich and spicy dishes.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: although the commercial name Guinness Draught is generally used, some regions simply call it "Guinness" or "black stout beer." Occasionally, it is referred to as Irish stout beer due to its style and origin.
