Beamish – Ireland’s Gentler Stout

by DAnneC Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 05 '04
Pros: Rich, dark, smooth brew
Cons: Limited availability in the States
I must admit, somewhat sadly, that I’ve never experienced Beamish on tap—only from those wonderful widget cans that promise the taste of the tap and the convenience of the six-pack (or in the case of Beamish, the four-pack). I have also never ...

Beamish me up Shcot...erm...Paddy

by proxam Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 13 '03
Pros: A smooth, easy-drinking stout
Cons: Could be more complex
When you think of Irish beer there's only one image that immediately springs to mind and that's black, black stout. Although there is more to Irish beer than one stereotypical image, it's the dark stuff that most would associate with the Emerald Isle - ...

Rich, Dark and Creamy!

by tange , Apr 28 '03
Pros: Smooth and rich, doesn't have the "burnt" taste of Guinness.
Cons: Not available as readily as Guinness or Murphys.
I know you might think I’m a bit silly, but I originally thought that Beamish Stout was brewed at the Beamish Museum in County Durham. It was at the museum that I had my first pint, so I can be forgiven for jumping to this conclusion. I soon found...

Probably the best of the "Big Three" Irish stouts

by Chad9976 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 15 '09
Pros: fairly sweet taste, no bitterness, super smooth, extremely light
Cons: palate is still very mild and watery; dry aftertaste
From what I understand there are three big names in traditional Irish dry stouts: Guinness, Murphy’s and Beamish. While the first two are indeed dry and fairly bitter, Beamish is quite sweet and smooth in comparison. Why isn’t this ...

Black Gold

by keltoiskin , Jun 21 '01
Pros: creamy, silky, no bitter aftertaste.
Cons: hard to find
If you like Guinness, then you're going to love this. I was first turned onto Beamish when I visited a little Irish pub in Philadelphia. The Guinness Company has just opened their own pub in Philadelphia, and as a result, a lot of the other Irish pubs,...

Smooth and Silky Stout!

by sleestakk Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 02 '00
Pros: Silky smooth taste; mild aftertaste
Cons: none
As it states on the back of the can, Beamish Draught Irish Stout is silky smooth. Brewed in Cork, Ireland by Beamish & Crawford, this is stout I can like a lot. It's a bit more subtle than Guinness and yet still has it's own flavor. It goes down...

Something heavy comes down the Mountain

by LaFeet Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 24 '01
Pros: Smooth texture, easy to drink, not as heavy as Guinness
Cons: Not Nationally available yet
After a short break, I have returned to my conquest, my goal.... to find the perfect beer (for me that is).

My previous travels have taken me far and wide.... and not just my belt size either.

I happened across Wasatch Irish...

A Taste of Irish Heaven

by wingdman , Jan 24 '00
Pros: smooth creamy taste, thick distinct head
Cons: overpriced in some markets
I have been a Guinness drinker for years. Just a couple of years ago I was at a beer tasting festival in Madison, WI (my hometown). There was no Guinness to be had, but I stumbled upon something just as good, Beamish.

Ireland's best export?

by latakiahaze , Mar 07 '01
Pros: Smooth, creamy, mild sweet flavour
Cons: None
Ireland produces some great whiskies and some great stouts and of these stouts, for me Beamish is king.

Brewed in Cork (along with Murphy's) Beamish is a subtler stout than Guinness, and unlike Guinness isn't brewed under licence in London -...

Better than Guinness?

by Zorin , Feb 23 '00
Pros: oaken taste, more edge than Guinness
Cons: price, availability on tap
Could it be that the king of stout has a distinct rival? As a resident of Colorado, the stout/porter state, I have had ample opportunity to taste a wide variety of stouts. Guinness has always proved better than the local varieties for it's complexity...

The reason not to drink Guinness

by trgross , Mar 15 '00
Pros: The best stout money can buy
Cons: Limited availability on tap
I was first introduced to Beamish Irish Stout while working as a bartender at Davidson Depot and Taphouse in Davidson, NC. The manager led me to believe that it was only available on tap in about five locations in the Southeast; I have yet to find...

Beamish! Gotta love it

by BigPapaD , Jan 20 '00
Pros: the velvety smooth finish
Cons: this is not Guiness, if thats what youre looking for
Beamish! The name invokes memories of sitting in an irish pub doing nothing but enjoying the tall dark brew before you. It has been said before, but unlike Guiness, Beamish has a more milder smoother taste. A bit of burned caramel and oh that head that...
