About this deal

Whilst I have never been a heavy drinker, I have enjoyed a pint of Guinness all of my life. I was delighted when Guinness ’00’ was launched and I do thoroughly, thoroughly enjoy it. The canned version is undoubtedly the nearest to draught I have ever sampled; excellent… but… As the name suggests, Guinness 0.0 is an alcohol-free version of the famous Guinness Draught stout with an ABV of 0.0%.

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.Worth noting: as we discovered, you'll need more than one can of Guinness 0.0 to fill the iconic pint glass as each can is 440ml. I was never a regular Guinness drinker, but would have had a few if I was in Ireland, or in a pub that actually knew how to pour the stuff. 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 Each pint takes so long to dispense on the micro draught system it will prove impossible to serve enough on a busy night. It cannot be served via keg and beer lines as it is alcohol free and I forsee landlords stopping selling it via micro draught due to the time taken to serve. I can see it sold only by widget cans soon enough. So if you're determined to convince yourself that Guinness is good for you you'll have a far more convincing case drinking 0.0.

After tasting each pair of drinks, both tasters were asked to choose whether they thought each drink was Guinness 0.0 or Guinness Draught. Lifted High Protein Lager from Lifted Brewing. Surprisingly clear considering the protein in it - 10g per can! Bready malts and stone fruits on the nose, and a malty taste which grows into a citrus bitterness. The body has more heft than your usual lager free-beer.co.uk/lifted-lager… @FreeBeer_UK - Jul 28Brewers have different methods for removing the alcohol from their beers, with varying effects on the flavour. Guinness says its 0.0 is brewed exactly the same way as usual, but with an extra stage of cold filtration that removes alcohol without stressing the liquid. 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.

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. 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. 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. Most governments around the world class drinks with 0.5% ABV or lower as ‘alcohol-free’, hence the use of the term.

I do wish everyone would stop calling these alcohol free or 0% alcohol, when they are NOT this one for instance is 0.05% ABV Update 11/11/2020: Guinness has announced a recall of Guinness 0.0, due to a contamination which it says may make some cans unsafe to drink.
