Guinness West Indies Porter

I’m not a big fan of Guinness, but when I spotted this i my local Asda in Peterlee, I thought that I would give in a try.
It pours nice and dark with a amber head, but the head did not last very long.
On the palate it is rather pleasing. There are notes of caramel, chocolate, toasted malts and toffee. The finish is nice with a good mouth feels.
The Guinness West Indies Porter was a very pleasant surprise because I was expecting a weedy ale.

7/10
