I like Foreign Extra, and Special Export. Never had the Nigerian version. The Jamaican one is quite sweet, though not sweet by the standards of Caribbean stout.

The Nigerian version was in the Eurospar in (Barnhall) Leixlip, but I haven't seen it in a while. I read a beer importer in the UK was bringing it in from Nigeria and Diageo weren't best pleased. Hence the Irish FE has become more available.

I quite like a bottle of it now and again, and the Nigerian variant, which is extremely hard to get, is a bit different again (sorghum?) but imho is Nigeria's best export.[/quote:2j60cnaj]

I much prefer the Special Export. Decency Restaurant on Mountjoy St sell Nigerian Guinness....they know how to charge for it too though <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( -->

The Nigerian version is very different, which I presume is due to the inclusion of sorghum, I wasn't gone on it to be honest.

Made me realise that while I prefer SES, not by much. And certainly not enough to trade up at Irish prices.
