Black and Tan

[MorganGrayson]

My husband has been quite taken by my recent British food purchases and has been experimenting with British beer. He recently had Boddingtons. He mentioned "Black and Tan," something about which I had read in many a novel. He bought some yesterday. Now, admittedly, this beer was made in Minnesota, I believe, or it may have been imported by them. (I read the label after drinking the beer, which explains the confusion. I don't drink often.) I had a taste. It happily smacked the hell out of my tastebuds, which is what I like a beer to do. I despise most American beers as they are pale and rather tasteless. I like a dark beer that bites.

I *loved* this stuff!!!

I had two bottles, causing my husband to say with wide eyes "that's more beer than you drink in a year!!!!"

There's two left. He can have the amber. I'm finishing off the Black and Tan with dinner tonight.
