- A new "60/40" pint, blending Guinness 0.0 with the original stout, has been introduced in some pubs.

- The concoction maintains the traditional two-stage pour, with Guinness 0.0 poured first.
- Public reaction to the innovation is divided, with some critics calling it "nonsense" while others appreciate the lighter alcohol content.
- The introduction of the 60/40 pint aligns with a growing trend of consumers, particularly young adults, opting for "no and low" alcohol products.
