Guinness 0.0

Had it first impressions not great. Didn't buy a second. I've no issues with zero percent anything.

Will try a different pub see if it's different but it only gets a second chance.

Sheehan's in Chatham Street Dublin.

Was quite surprised to see the tap as I didn't know it was out for sale yet.

Had it in a pub in the West, €4.40, pulled from a can which is the surger system I’d say.

Will have it again, tasted fine, head stayed all the way to the last drop, tbh I’ve had much worse pints of Guinness.

7.5:10

Is it available now folks? I asked in 3 pubs last weekend (naas area) and none of them had it

I had one in the Queen's in Dalkey a few weeks back after having 3 pints of the real thing, was a can from a surger machine. Tasted fine to me, the best NA beer I've tasted to date. They hadn't chilled the can quite down to the level the pints were being served at either so possibly would have been a bit nicer if they had. I wouldn't sit there and drink six of them but one or two when I'm driving would be fine.

You can enter your Eircode on this and it will give you the closest pubs stocking it.

Thomas Connolly's pub in Sligo have it on tap. Haven't tried it yet but saw it on their Facebook page.

It's not on tap as we know it, it's a different system to the conventional draught.

Lot of tech gone into the pourer it seems. Won't pour if it is not a Guinness 0.0 can and if the can is too warm (which is a good thing and disadvantages the lazy/disorganised publican!). I wonder if there is a NFC tag or something similar in the can that would prevent any rival products being used in the pourer ala HP printers and their ink?

Yet to try this, will give it a go first time I see it. This video shows the pour system and also compares 0.0 to regular.

Spoiler alert: verdict is similar to opinion on this thread, acceptable substitute but not exactly the same.

Thanks for the heads up listermint. Got the last 4 pack in Tesco's Kildare this afternoon.

Popped 2 in the fridge and sampled them after 4 hours chilling.

Must say I am impressed. Not quite the same as draught, but very decent at the same time. Compares really well to cans at home I feel. Compares very well to other AF choices.

Might be an 8 or maybe even a 9 out of 10 for me.

Will try a bar version when I see it.

Had a pint yest in a local

it was quite nice when first served cold chilled but as it warmed up over 30 mins or so there was definitely a sweet chocolate type of taste off it which I wasn’t mad about.

Yes had two more last night.

You have to chill these . Make sure they are properly cold and maybe even your glass is cold. Otherwise they are simply not great .

Give them an 8 when cold cold.

Like many, picked it up in my Tesco - 4 cans for €6.

I find them ok - for me, there was some sort of syrupy sweetness to them.

I'm going to hold on to one to taste test between normal canned Guinness and maybe Beamish and or Murphys.

Just having it here. Really really impressed! Other non alcoholic beers haven't done anything for me. I'm not a regular Guinness drinker but do enjoy a pint of it and from a can this is at the very least comparable to their alcohol version.

Best non alcoholic beer I've tried, worth the wait!

Well, tried out the cans (extra cold) and have to say I was quite impressed. Like other posters, I got a distinctly chocolate after-taste on finishing but nothing too distasteful. Will try them next in between some regular cans to see how they 'fit-in'. Exciting!

Would agree with listermint, probably best to chill the can AND the glass before you consume.

At least there are ingredients listed.

Once there is alcohol in the product, there is no requirement to list ingredients. Regular Guinness could have any amount of natural or unnatural flavourings and we'd be none the wiser!
