    I’ve never seen this before. My local brewery was offering this NEIPA/ Stout combo over the weekend. I didn’t have it, but heard it was good. Looks interesting.

    Isn't that basically a Black n Tan?

    I think the usual tan part of the black n tan isn’t an IPA. I could be wrong in that though.

    I believe that a traditional "black and tan" is Guinness and Harp....

    Yes it's a Lager usually but what you have there is basically the same idea.

    How did it taste?  It was only a matter of time before people tried mixing other beers.

    I wish I could comment on this pal.  I didn’t even get a chance to drink it. Some friends said it was excellent though.

    Just a good old-fashioned, back to basics beer tonight. A local staple.

    I’m getting burnt out on the fruity IPAs personally. Some are getting over the top. Look at this. This isnt beer.

    Yumm!!  Can't wait to visit in June and bring some back. Other than Rev & Half Acre, what other brewers do you recommend? I'm gonna try to get to Off Color one day and there will be a 'Sconny trip for some New Glarus.

    That’s awesome that you’re visiting soon!  Sounds like you have the good ones covered and New Glarus is always a treat. A couple of other good ones that are within a half hour of the city are Mikerphone in Elk Grove Village and Noon Whistle in Lombard. I’d highly recommend both if you venture out of the city.

    Check out Corridor Brewery...it's on Southport not too far from Wrigley.  Really good beers and food over there.
