Beer #91: Back in Black! (Black and Tan)


 

Name: Black and Tan
Brewer: Guinness
Type: Black and Tan
ABV: 5%
Grade: S
Info: A black and tan is a beer cocktail made by layering a pale beer (usually pale ale) and a dark beer (usually stout). In Ireland, the drink is called a half and half.

My Thoughts: A black and tan is a classic drink. The original, traditional black and tan is half Guinness and half Bass Ale. But any porter and lager will do in a pinch. Also some companies sell a black and tan already mixed such as Yuengling. Still nothing beats pouring your own. Oh wait, actually it does! Go to an Irish pub and let them pour it for you! See the pic above. So amazing and delicious. Can't recommend it enough!
