About this deal
Taste- how enjoyable was the flavour of the drink? How strong or rich was it? What flavours came through strongest? Did it make you want to take another sip? Svart/Hvit from @nogneo . Treacle, coffee, roasted malts and vanilla on the nose, restrained bitterness with more roasted grains, coffee and a slight caramel sweetness as we taste. Lovely hefty body. Could easily pass for a full-fat stout free-beer.co.uk/nogne-o-svar… #alcoholfree @FreeBeer_UK - Sep 5 Introducing Guinness 0.0, our non-alcoholic beer with the same beautifully smooth taste, perfectly balanced flavour and unique dark colour of Guinness, without the alcohol. Brewed with our new cold filtration process. This ensures you get the same beautifully smooth taste, perfectly balanced flavour and unique dark colour of Guinness Draught, just without the alcohol. The latest in 250 years of innovation, Guinness 0.0 is specially brewed to retain the characteristic flavours which make Guinness Draught our most popular beer. The brewing process starts just as it always has, but with Guinness 0.0 the alcohol is gently removed through a cold filtration method. This helps to preserve its natural flavour, ensuring that the all-important sweetness of the malt, the bitterness of the hops and the unique Guinness Roasted Barley flavours are all perfectly balanced. After tasting each pair of drinks, both tasters were asked to choose whether they thought each drink was Guinness 0.0 or Guinness Draught. The tasters rated both Guinness types highly in appearance, with the characteristic dark and ruby body and creamy white head appealing to tasters in equal measure.
Stout - Guinness Draught 0.0%, Can 440 ml x 24 | Matthew Clark
For our blind tasting two testers, one a regular Guinness drinker and the other a Guinness novice, poured glasses of each drink for each other without revealing which was the Guinness 0.0 and which was the Guinness Draught. Now without alcohol, Guinness 0.0 is the iconic, best-selling stout beer, with groundbreaking innovation right at its ruby-red heart. The Guinness brewers have worked tirelessly to ensure that Guinness 0.0 retains the beautifully smooth, cool and dark taste of Guinness. The alcohol is removed, but the distinctive character of Guinness remains just like Guinness, Guinness 0.0 is dark ruby red with a creamy head, with hints of chocolate and coffee, and is smoothly balanced with bitter, sweet, roasted notes.Both tasters identified small nuances that enabled them to distinguish two different drinks, but the regular Guinness drinker was the one who could consistently tell which one was the Guinness Draught. Aroma- what did the drink smell like? What scents came through more than others? Did the aroma make you want to drink it?

Appearance- did the drink look appealing? Was there clear separation between the dark body and the creamy white head? Did it look flat or lively? Our tasters thought Guinness has done an excellent job of replicating Guinness Draught with its Guinness 0.0, though on a blind tasting both tasters found that they slightly preferred the Guinness Draught. The aroma of the Guinness 0.0 was judged to be stronger than that of the Guinness Draught, our tasters found. Sweet and malty scents of coffee and dark chocolate were pleasantly identified in the 0.0, whereas the Draught, although similar, had a milder aroma overall. The novice Guinness drinker mostly thought that the Guinness 0.0 was the Guinness Draught and that the Guinness Draught was the Guinness 0.0, but they were nonetheless able to notice that the two drinks were slightly different.Overall both of our tasters found Guinness 0.0 a delightful alternative to Guinness Draught. Veteran Guinness drinkers will most likely be able to tell which is which, but as alcohol-free alternatives go, our tasters thought Guinness is onto a winner with the 0.0.
