Agree, I've been wanting to brew one for a while now.
I remember about twenty years ago, when the first low carb beers started coming out, Consumer Reports ran an article on low carb beers and to my surprise and delight, they actually included Guinness pub draft nitro cans. It placed highly in their test. They only knocked it for being slightly higher in carbs than the specially made, enzyme treated, low carb products.Month 4 of the Beermeister32 reduction program (46 lbs to date) brings us Guinness Non-Alcoholic Draught beer.
The funny thing about drinking Guinness in the first place is the comments you get from non-beer drinkers – Wow, that Stout must be a heavy beer, how can you drink it? We all know that it is actually a medium alcohol beer, nothing heavy at all – very drinkable – and so is this Non-Alcoholic version. Hey, it’s dark and light – REALLY light!!!
Delicious and roasty, old Arthur Guinness got around taxes by using roasted Barley instead of roasted Barley malt. How much taxes for no alcohol? My kinda guy!
The current presentation has the foaming pill inside the can to give an approximation of Nitrogen/CO2 gas on tap. It really works well, providing an interesting moving pattern in the glass similar to an old school beer pump engine, and a rich and fine head of foam which lasts and lasts – all the way to the bottom of the glass!
The only – and I mean ONLY area needing improvement is the carbonation levels. I know that a lot of these ales are served on tap with very low Nitrogen/CO2 levels, but I have to say, after drinking 4 of these, the foaming pill or whatever, something is causing these cans to produce beer that is nearly flat.
A great “diet” ale to enjoy! Cheers!

That's a pretty good party trick and, if you think about it, a far better way to organize that beverage.(upside down) Black and Tan

The gravity of the situation requires it this way. I should an uncola glass for this next time.That's a pretty good party trick and, if you think about it, a far better way to organize that beverage.
