Black and Tan

MorganGrayson · 10-16-2005

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.
