In world there are many different types of alcoholic beverages. Many of these are firm favorites with people. One of the all time favorites is that of beer. While there are many different beer brands that we can enjoy drinking we shall instead take a small tour into the Guinness beer brewing industry. This tour will however mainly focus on the Guinness brewery and not on the technical parts. As most of you are aware Guinness beer is an Irish beer that is styled after the alcoholic drink called Porter. The main brewery where this beer is made can be found in Dublin, Ireland. The brewery’s name is that of Saint James’s Gate Brewery. From this brewery alone the companies has produced many different variations of Guinness beer. For a short time period you could find the London branch of the Guinness brewery as well. This branch closed down in 2005. All of the production that had previously occurred here at the Park Royal Guinness brewery was continued in the original brewery. This closure is probably due in part to the belief of British Guinness beer drinkers that the Irish brewed beer tasted better than the English version. There are currently many different countries that import various types of Guinness beer. The number of varieties of beer which are made from this company are 19. Each of these beer varieties come in differing strengths and in some cases variations. There are many times when the original recipe of the Guinness beer has changed its composition. This change can occur for many reasons. There are times when the change is due to the various alcoholic and beer laws which may be in place. In these instances the components of the beer which are not allowed for those distributing countries is taken out and replaced with another acceptable item. The usual items which are used for the production of Guinness Beer are ones water, hops, brewers yeast, and barley malt. To provide the beer which the signature Guinness beer taste a portion of the barley is flaked – this process is also called steaming and then rolling – and next it is roasted. The end taste of this process is one that we are all familiar with. This flaking process and roasting also gives the beer its dark ruby coloring. Of the many different beers which you can buy only Guinness beer allows you to taste so many varieties. As you drink only the one type or more you will see why so many people in many different countries love to buy Guinness beer.
