What is stout beer and why is it so dark?

If you're wondering what is stout beer, it’s a top-fermented beer style famous for its deep black colour and creamy head. That dark hue comes from heavily roasted barley, which gives stout beer its signature flavours of coffee, chocolate, and caramel. Whether you’re after a classic dry Irish style or a rich imperial version, we’ve got a massive range of stout beer brands like Guinness and Coopers ready for 30-minute* Store Pick-Up.
