Beer and potatoes? Sterotypes aside, you’re also kinda right, and these two are fantastic. Shockingly, it’s taken us until 2015 to finally discover: [Guinness potato chips](http://www.burtschips.com/guinness/ "undefined"). These unique crisps (as chips are called on the other side of the pond) are actually a British product, coming from [Burts British Hand Cooked Potato Chips](http://www.burtschips.com/guinness/ "undefined"). Two flavors are available: original Guinness and Guinness Rich Beef Chili. Both get their dark beer essence by being flavored with a “unique blend of roasted barley and hops.” [According to Foodbeast](http://www.foodbeast.com/news/guinness-chips/ "undefined"), which gave the product a try at the Fancy Food Show, the results were “not bad at all.” They “taste pretty much like the bittersweet stout from Ireland.” Throw in a bottle of Jameson and a Thin Lizzy album and you’ve pretty much got the whole of Ireland covered. \[h/t [Foodiggity](http://www.foodiggity.com/guinness-potato-chips-are-a-thing/ "undefined")\] _This_ [_article_](http://www.foodandwine.com/fwx/drink/look-engineering-schematics-more-70-different-cocktails?xid=PS%5Ftime "undefined") _originally appeared on_ [_FWx_](http://www.foodandwine.com/fwx/ "undefined")_._ _More from FWx:_ * [Look at Engineering Schematics for More Than 70 Different Cocktails](http://www.foodandwine.com/fwx/drink/look-engineering-schematics-more-70-different-cocktails?xid=PS%5Ftime "undefined") * [15 of the Most-Effective, Stylish and Discreet Flasks You’ll Ever Need](http://www.foodandwine.com/fwx/slideshow/15-most-effective-stylish-and-discreet-flasks-youll-ever-need?xid=PS%5Ftime "undefined") * [7 Craft Breweries to Keep an Eye On in 2015](http://www.foodandwine.com/fwx/drink/7-craft-breweries-keep-eye-2015?xid=PS%5Ftime "undefined") ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3696386/guinness-flavored-potato-chips/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3696386/guinness-flavored-potato-chips/"},"headline":"Guinness-Flavored Potato Chips Have Arrived","datePublished":"2015-02-04T23:12:45.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T08:56:41.900Z","description":"Two flavors are available","url":"https://time.com/3696386/guinness-flavored-potato-chips/","keywords":["Living","Food & Drink","Beer"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt294669e7d870db65/69877db00b72e377eb6dd868/guinness-flavored-potato-chips-have-arrived.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Mike Pomranz / Food & Wine"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt294669e7d870db65/69877db00b72e377eb6dd868/guinness-flavored-potato-chips-have-arrived.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"guinness chips","caption":"guinness chips","creditText":"Carolyn Jenkins / Alamy","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-living/","name":"Living"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3696386/guinness-flavored-potato-chips/","name":"Guinness-Flavored Potato Chips Have Arrived"}}]}] ```
