                                First introduced in 1959, the first nitro beer was created by Guinness to achieve a smoother, creamier texture using a mixture of nitrogen and carbon dioxide. This innovation led to the iconic Guinness Nitro experience, bringing the perfect pub pour to cans and the advanced Nitrosurge system for at-home enjoyment.
