Hold onto your pints, because we have a bit of Guinness trivia that is about to knock your green St. Paddys Day hat right off your head. Guinness, that beloved stout that you drink religiously on Saint Patricks Day (which you sometimes drop a shot of baileys into and chug) and is as filling as a dinner, is not what you think.

If you take a look at glass of Guinness, its black, right? If youre being picky, its a deep, deep chocolate brown. But actually, its not black at all. Its not even brown. This pint of beer is red and the Guinness website confirms it .
