Black and Tan

Thanks to Old Chicago, the husband and I have become huge fans of Black & Tan beers. Unfortunately, OC charges around $4/beer. No thanks! So we started experimenting on our own and discovered that they really are easy to make! Our favorite has been made with Guiness and Weach beer (Peach Wheat - http://www.ofallonbrewery.com/Aboutourbeer.html) - however, this is not always easy to find. Really, just about any light (as in color, not cals/carbs) will work. Others we have tried: Leinenkugals Honey Weiss (Rating: A) and Leinenkugals Berry Weiss (Rating: D).

How are they made? Half "light" Beer + Half Guiness = Black and Tan. To get the neat layered effect, make sure to slowly pour your beers with a tilted glass, pouring the light beer first.
