So I guess their big secret to Guinness is it does not contain hops. The smithwicks list, compared to the Guinness list is rather short, so I guess smithwicks is some big concoction of rye, milk, lard, and eggs. Also the smithwicks does contain roasted malted barley but no mention of that in the Guinness.
Next to no useful info but it put a smile on my face.
