Same look as a Baby Guinness, different engine. A tequila-based coffee liqueur brings a drier, roastier body with a hint of agave, and the Irish cream head softens it into a small dessert in a glass.

Baby Stout
Roasted coffee and dark chocolate with a faint peppery agave note, softened by sweet cream and vanilla. Drier and stronger than a Baby Guinness.
The Baby Stout is a variation on the Baby Guinness, the pub shot built to resemble a miniature pint of stout. Where the original uses a classic rum or neutral-spirit coffee liqueur, the Baby Stout calls for a coffee liqueur made on a tequila base, which is less sweet and higher in alcohol.
It appeared as tequila-based coffee liqueurs reached bar shelves, and no bartender or date can be attached to it. Like its model, it relies on simple layering: the lighter Irish cream floats on top of the denser coffee liqueur to form a pale "head".
The Baby Stout uses a tequila-based coffee liqueur, which is drier and slightly stronger.
Yes, then it is essentially a Baby Guinness. It will be sweeter.
No. The name only refers to its stout-like look.
The perfect sound
A tiny stout lookalike full of fun.
