Yeh St Pattys falling on a monday kinda killed things a little bit...
It was yesterday for me and it was really quiet round the city for a change instead of the usual drunken carnage.

St. Patrick's Day is just a promotional gimmick for Guinness, IMO!

The two most common types of Black and Tan [or Half & Half to be PC ];) in the United States use Guinness Draught (not Extra Stout) and either Bass, or Harp Lager. The "layering" of Guinness on top of the ale is possible because the relative density of Guinness is less than that of the ale. Note: the layering is often mistakenly attributed to the fact that Guinness is partly carbonated with the lighter nitrogen gas but this theory is disproved by the fact that Black and Tans were around long before Guinness started putting nitrogen into stout.


First fill a glass halfway with the ale, then add the Guinness Draught (from the can, bottle, or tap). The top layer is best poured slowly over an upside-down tablespoon placed over the glass to avoid splashing and mixing the layers. A specially designed black-and-tan spoon is bent in the middle so that it can balance on the edge of the pint-glass for easier pouring.

In the United Kingdom, another way of preparing a Black and Tan is to pour half a pint of dark stout into a pint glass and then top up with draught bitter, so that both beers are thoroughly mixed together.
