Stout advice

Hi, I'm quite partial to a pint of Guiness, any advice of what to buy that will taste and look similar to Guiness. Thanks

Opinions vary on comparing home brew to shop bought, one option is the Irish Velvet which has great feedback a link to the review page is below too:

Just had a look, I will order it shortly, would it be ok if I use the coopers drops as I have about 4 bags or should I use the ones that are listed with the stout info.

It makes a good brew, we made it here and were impressed with it. To prime you can use any form of sugar you like, either Coopers or Maxale drops, or brewing sugar or white granulated sugar - it will all so the same job, we usually use whatever we have to hand
