Exclusive Ancient Grain Beers

Guinness Fonio Stout is a limited-edition beer brewed in support of the Brewing for Impact campaign, a collaborative initiative inspired by Brooklyn Brewery Brewmaster Garrett Oliver's work with ancient West African grain fonio. The 6.2% ABV Guinness Fonio Stout shares an impactful new experience with flavors of roasted coffee, chocolate, and tropical fruits, and features special packaging designed by Haitian American artist Kervin Brisseaux.

Food and beverage brands are embracing fonio to support sustainable farming practices and combat soil erosion, all while appearing to health-conscious consumers with the remarkable features of the resilient ancient grain.

This limited-edition beer is launching with exclusive Guinness Fonio Stout Beer Dinner events at Open Gate Brewery locations in Chicago and Baltimore.
