Nigeria and Dublin are the only two places with breweries producing the velvet sandwich-in-a-glass these days,since they shut the brewery in London down.
That's not true. Guinness is brewed in 49 countries.
What utter nonsense why don’t you name them then,I won’t hold my breath!
Guinness has a significant share of the African beer market, where it has been sold since 1827. About 40 percent of worldwide total Guinness volume is brewed and sold in Africa, with Foreign Extra Stout the most popular variant. Three of the five Guinness-owned breweries worldwide are located in Africa.[145]
The beer is brewed under licence internationally in several countries, including Nigeria,[146][147] the Bahamas, Canada,[148] Cameroon, Kenya, Uganda, South Korea, Namibia, and Indonesia.[149]
Australia.
There are 3 versions of Guinness here; a draught pub nitro keg version, not unlike the Irish brew, and a strong 6% ABV bottled Foreign Extra Stout that is unique to Australia. The cans with the nitrogen widget are imported from Ireland.
In the 1970s it was brewed by Tooheys in Sydney, then the contract passed to CUB in the mid 2000s if I recall the dates correctly. With the recent worldwide brewery mergers, Tooheys ( Lion ) got the contract back.
As in other countries the local versions are brewed using domestic base malts, hop extract and grains plus a finishing concentrate shipped out of Ireland that contains the characteristic Guinness Stout flavour and colour components such as roast barley and a number of commercial-in-confidence ingredients.
When Tooheys accepted the contract in the 1970s they were allowed to brew the local versions using a lager yeast, as they had retired nearly all their ale plant, and needed it for the brewing of Tooheys Old dark ale. Over the various changes of contract Guinness has continued to be brewed as a lager in Australia.
