"Guinness" appeared more than 200 years ago. In the distant 1756 Arthur Guinness the first brewery was opened in the city of Leixlip. But he did not manage there for long, after 3 years the founder of this brand moved to Dublin and rents an abandoned brewery. It was there in the seventies of the 18th century that he decided to change the direction of work and began to cook porter in parallel with the ale. It was the right choice. Truly excellent taste qualities possessed by the "Guinness"! Beer already at that time began to be exported to many countries. Back in 1969, "Guinness" began to sell in England.

Currently, the owner of the brand "Guinness" is the company "Diageo", whose main office is located in London. It is because of this that many mistakenly believe that England is the homeland of the "Guinness" beer. But in fact it is an Irish drink. Now beer production is established in 50 countries. In total, more than 15 varieties are produced. Among them, the most popular is "Guinness Draft", "Foreign Stout Extra", "Guinness Original".

"Guinness Draft" is an intoxicating drink, which uses special technologies "rocket widget" for bottles, and "shaped widget" for cans. It is with their help that this Irish beer "Guinness" acquires a taste of draft. In addition, these patented inventions are designed to create a permanent foam. There are several varieties of this variety, depending on the method of production and packaging. So, "Draught Stout" from "Guinness" - beer in kegs. In addition, manufacturers have developed one more specific grade, which is subjected to a strong cooling - "Extra Cold Draft Stout". It is also produced in kegs. For home use, according to the creators of this drink, "Guinness Draft Surger" is best suited, the alcohol content in it does not exceed 4.3%.

"Guinness Foreign Extra Stout" is most often found in African countries and in Asia. It is characterized by a thick foam and a pronounced smell of burnt sugar or caramel. This is quite strong and bitter beer, but in it you will not feel a taste of alcohol. This feature applies to all varieties of "Guinness". Beer produced in the UK or Nigeria, differs in taste from others. After all, in these countries for its production is used not barley, and sorghum.

"Guinness Original" - this is a variety, which, according to taste, is as close as possible to the original, to the beer that was started to brew by Arthur Guinness. It has a pronounced characteristic flavor, and it is produced in bottles and cans.

The company does not stop there: the sales markets are expanding, new production is being established, and, of course, the range is increasing. Over the past 10 years, two more varieties were welded, although their output was limited. In addition, in addition to the standard dark beer, the company produces a stout, a distinctive feature of which is a reduced alcohol content (it does not exceed the level of 2.8%).
