GuinnessGuinness Nitrosurge Device

I thoroughly expected this to be a gimmick, but I was nicely surprised as I bought myself it for Christmas, along with 12 Nitro cans.After happily drinking draught Guinness for many years, I can honestly say that the nitro cans along with the nitro device definitely pour a superior pint to what we get with the 30 year old "widget", another gimmick, which also improved the drink, AND stood the test of time. While the impact of the nitro isn't quite as huge as the widget was vs flat Guinness, it is very noticeably better than a draught can pour and dare I say it, most pub tap pours!You won't believe me until you try it for yourself, and there will be people who think the difference isn't worth the price increase per can, but I think about it this way; if we buy into this latest gimmick, then the prices of the cans will surely decrease as they become the new norm and a solid/reliable revenue stream for the makers. At the moment though, it feels like most people are waiting for the price to come down before they buy them, but as far as I'm concerned, they should be cheaper than the draught cans regardless, because a nitro can requires no Co2 or widget!Still though, Guinness are entitled to cash in on their latest gimmick for a while. because it truly is a lovely pour! I hope that the more people who join team nitro, the cheaper the cans will eventually get.But, for those of us who don't want to pay for nitro cans, there is a little trick that works brilliantly and costs nothing... You can use regular Guinness draught cans with the Nitro Surge! Yep, the only thing you need is a pin and about 2-3 minutes of patience!Pierce the draught can's lid, right inside the ring pulls groove, wait about 2-3 minutes for the gas to fully escape, and then open it and attach it to your nitro surge as normal, and you'll notice no difference to a nitro can! There is a catch for us who only have access to the 440ml cans, in that you'll have to pierce a 2nd can and then continue the pour in order to get to a full pint, which is quite annoying but the good news is that pint draught Guinness cans are already out and are slowly making their way into our local supermarkets!Regardless of which method you use, the nitro surge definitely adds quality to your pint, and for around £25, it's a worthwhile investment for any Guinness drinker.I think it deserves my 5 star review, as I honestly can't fault it, but the nitro cans and the near double price tag is a whole different story!

The Guinness Draught Nitrosurge Device is a game changer for any Guinness lover who wants to recreate that perfect pub-quality pour at home. The device is easy to use and does exactly what it promises—delivering that signature creamy head and smooth texture that you get from a tap in a bar. It gives the stout that iconic rich and velvety taste that Guinness is known for.Using the Nitrosurge system feels seamless; just attach it to the can, and with a few simple steps, you can pour the perfect pint. I was impressed with how consistent each pour was, and it really makes a difference compared to pouring straight from the can.The device is compact and easy to clean, which is an added bonus. If you're a Guinness fan and want to enjoy a true pub experience from the comfort of your home, this device is absolutely worth it. Highly recommended for those who appreciate the finer details of a great stout!

Works but needs to be cold

Little bit expensive when purchased but the price has dropped now. Guinness is great through this device.

The media could not be loaded. What an amazing little pourer. Perfect points all round on match night. This device works wonders and so simple to install and use, on the special cans of Guinness. Yes you can just pour yourself from can to glass and get a good head of froth. Or add this device to the can and it will inject air into your pint and head and create the right amount of frothy head that tastes Completely different to drinking it the normal way, the experience is worth the cost of the item as my friends come over to use it too. Give it a go and your see what I mean by taste different.

One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. I honestly can’t believe how good of a pint you get from this. Beats most pub pints hands down. Get this and enjoy some absolute creamers!!

Expensive for what they are, and the cable is very fragile.

A great gadget for an excellent pint
