All About Beer

Black & Tan

Black & Tan was originally conceived as British pub concoction of stout and IPA mixed in a pint pot. Variations are still blended in some English pubs, but in the United States the term is used by a small number of brands to loosely refer to a dark amber to brown colored beer with a malt accent, relatively light in alcohol and low in hop character.
