black and tan
Two-toned pint glass
Black and tan refers to a coloring pattern—black with tan markings—seen in certain dog breeds like Rottweilers, Dobermans, and coonhounds.
A Black and Tan is also a layered drink made by floating dark stout (like Guinness) atop pale ale, creating two distinct color bands.
Historically, the Black and Tans were British paramilitary forces deployed in Ireland around 1920, named for their mismatched uniforms; the term remains politically charged in Irish contexts.
