well in that case..... I had some of that Guiness draught in a can the other day. It had been a while since I'd had any. I swear it used to be way better. Just had a funny, I dunno, slight charcoal taste. (no I don't make a habit of eating charcoal) I managed to drink all 4 cans though. A miracle really. And drinking it didn't make my Westy smell better at ALL.
