. . . Accomplished!
By Ian, that is. Whilst visiting Omaha for Lisa's wedding, Ian and I proved to be abject failures at creating one version of a black & tan. That notwithstanding, the failures were truly enjoyable, because a failed black & tan is either a half & half OR, another version of a black & tan. How can one lose?
Nonetheless, we both were determined to make the "real thing." Ian succeeded first - primarily because I sent him a clever little device.
No, not the custom bent spoon. We tried that, and had more failures to drink. The device is made by Bass, is called a "Brolly," and it works perfectly.
I'm not sure that "perfectly" involves a pale ale from New York, but I'm feeling charitable tonight. After all, he did use a proper stout.

Heh heh - and it tasted goooood!
The Pale Ale was the best one they had at Bag and Save (the ice was thicker a Bad Banker's skin when we went out to get it).
I reckon it would look a lot better in a straight glass and I *think* I put a little too much Guinness in it too, but, nevertheless, it worked!
Good job, nonetheless - and can one ever have too much Guinness in one's glass?
I just happen to have four new "official" Guinness glasses which I am anxious to try out. Documentation to follow.
