I had a pint of DarkStar HopHead between two of something else the other week. It was all grapefruit, dominating everything else.

Yeah - what's not to like? :smile:
 
What's that like 'teef? My local shop sell's it but have yet to try it.
I'm not a big Stout or Guinness fan.
Well, it's dark, strong, powerful and...4 for £6 at your' local shop'...just like in this one, down the road from you in Bromley-next-Orp...

It's a strong stout flavour, top class.
It's the fruitier of Guinness' "St James Project" stouts - I like it a lot, but if you want something that's more on the smoky side, the XX stout from the same range has less of the fruit, and more of the smoke. (White label on the right of the West Indies Porter).

The blue & white label stuff (on the left) is a bit ordinary, too much like the base Guinness product for me.

I've never seen the white label, I'll have a look for it. I tried the blue label a while back and like you say it's a bit bland, more of a junior beer.
