West Indies Porter is complex yet mellow, hoppy with notes of toffee and chocolate. With origins in an 1801 entry in Guinness' brewers' diaries, today's Guinness West Indies Porter was inspired by the first beer purposely brewed at St. James's Gate to sustain its freshness, wherever it was shipped. A deep rich and characterful porter with hints of toffee and chocolate.
Guinness originated on a four-acre brewery site in the heart of Dublin city. Here it can trace its development from these humble beginnings into what was, at one point, the biggest brewery in the world.
