Since potato chips make the perfect pub food, British brand Burts created these beer potato chips that are meant to taste like a pint of Guinness.
The two flavors available include an Original and a Rich Beef Chili, designed to be a hearty alternative to the average potato chip. By combining a well-known stout with an artisan potato chip, this sounds like a winning combo that's way better than snacking on the average bar food like peanuts and pretzels. In terms of what you can expect these chips to taste like, it's described that there's a "mouth-watering crisp with the bitter sweet flavour of the iconic Irish stout." While these Burts chips won't be replacing Guinness at the bar anytime soon, they make a great snack option that you can indulge in before happy hour.
