All-Irish Black & Tan

1/2 pint Guinness® Draught

From a chilled bottle, fill a clean pint glass just over halfway with Smithwick's® Ale. Open a chilled can of Guinness® Draught. The head will rise. Prepare to pour. Place your Black & Tan spoon (regular spoon will also work) face down on the rim of the glass and slowly pour your newly opened Guinness® Draught over it. When the Guinness® has risen to just proud of the rim, you're ready to enjoy the distinct pleasures of The All-Irish Black & Tan.
