The Secret to A Perfect Guinness Pour:
Ever wondered what’s inside a can of Guinness Draught? That little ball hiding inside is called a widget, and it’s not just there to keep the can company. This clever bit of technology releases nitrogen when you open the can, creating Guinness’s signature cascade of bubbles and its famously smooth, creamy foam. It’s the secret behind unlocking a pub-style experience straight from the can! Here’s how to get the most out of your pour:
- Chill out! Refrigerate Guinness Draught for at least 24 hours before serving.
- Grab a glass. Choose a clean, dry glass to show off that beautiful dark brew and creamy head.
- Tilt and pour. Hold your glass at about a 45-degree angle and pour the beer in one smooth motion.
- Let it settle. Give the beer a moment to work its magic as the bubbles cascade and the creamy head forms.
- Then raise your glass and enjoy!
