at least it tastes decent out of a can now they have those widgets. I've got a dozen cans of guiness left over from about 7 years ago before they had widgets, tastes so sweet, kind of like it still does in the bottle. I cannot bring myself to drink it, yet i can't make myself throw it out either

The wiget releases nitrogen when the can is opened. This in turn has the effect of making a big fluffy head (or foam) on the top of the beer. It also has the effect of removing most of the carbonation from the rest of the beer.
IMO canned beer is bad enough, and this just makes it worse
