What's the difference between Guinness Draught and Guiness Stout?

Stout is a style of beer, of which Guinness is the best-known example. Draught refers in most cases to the dispense method; however, Guinness has developed a type of can that is supposed to mimic the pouring of beer from the tap, and calls that Guinness Draught as well.

There are other variations of Guinness (Foreign Export, Extra, different versions brewed for different markets, etc.), but they're all stout.

Anyone ever seen Foreign Export in the States? Came across it in Bermuda a couple of years ago...F!@#ING GREAT to use Lew B's terminology...

Somebody needs a refresher... Lew?

If the foreign export has been sold in the States, it's been a very long time ago. I've only known of two versions in the last 15 years or so - draught and extra. And the extra sucks now.

-Steve

Have you ever seen the extra stout on draught?

Guinness drinkin, shillelagh toten... SEAN

Dude, I wouldn't want to see the draught extra stout. The bottled version is already undrinkable, imho.

Best regards, Bill

PS: Same goes for the Harp. OH CANADA? Not this time. :^(
