    What Do You Think Are the Best Cominations of Beers for Making a "Black and Tan"?
    Hi, All!

    That's if you like beer. Not everyone does.

    I know that this is largely a matter of personal taste and preference. But, it would be good to hear from others as to their preferences concerning making a "Black and Tan" if they've had that drink and/or know how to make one.

    Thanks!

    Sorry, didn't read your total question.

    Pour chilled Harp in Pint glass to half
    Pour chilled Guinness over a spoon slowly on top of the Harp.

    This is the only way I have heard of it and made it. I was a bartender for 20 years.

    They do have another one similar called a 'half and half' made with Guinness and Bass.

    Hi, All!

    I wonder why pouring a beer over a spoon would be necessary?

    Thanks!

    It makes the pouring slower and doesn't agitate the Harp, so the end product is tan on the bottom and black on the top.
