I think that beer would go great with a cigar. Let us know how the combo is and how your trip went.

I drink Guiness all the time with cigars at Robustos. Just don't try anything light hearted, as the Guiness tends to overpower the cigar. I always go for a strong flavored maduro with it.

Guiness and full-bodied cigars are the way to go. You can't get much better than that .

i was just there, and to tell u the truth, erase what flavor you have as guiness that you drank here. it is a totally different beer and it is incredible, it tastes so much different that normally i wouldn't drink one here cause of its bitter (yet delicious) taste, but over there it is almost sweet so i would say yes.

[koapoorpeople]

God drinks Guinness!

[guado]

I am not a fan of guiness and cigars. Bitter beers IMO take away from the experience.

Keep in mind I LOVE guiness.

I've not had Guiness in England but in America they make two kinds of Guiness, Draft and extra stout and they couldn't be more different.

indeed, but Extra Stout is not available in Draft beer at a bar i dont believe. so most of the time if one buys the draft in can/bottle or at the local bar is more than likely the Draught selection of the brand. But even the Draught in England and in Ireland is must sweeter tasting than it is here, it has to do with time (transportation time to the US) and believe it or not the taps at local bars that give it a taste we know and love.

criddler draught to me is less acidic in taste and has a larger creamey head that lasts longer the extrer stout is a much more acidic taste with little head and i just dont like it without the head its nothing but a nasty taste that burns my throat
