Black & Tan
Yuengling Brewery

 

 

 

 

Poured from a 12oz can into a Forager nonic pint glass. Pours a light brown out of the can but in the glass it appears a darker and shinier with almost two fingers of khaki foam head. The nose has rye bread and light coffee roast. Taste follows with a subtle caramel finish to it. Medium-full mouthfeel. This drinks kind of more like a brown ale than anything else. Interesting beer.

 

 

The best way to sum up this beer is not bad, but nothing to go out of your way to get either. I’ve had many of the can and been satisfied, but it’s just not a top shelf offering. That said, compared to other b&t offerings it’s above average. But if you’re looking to match a poured b&t you’re gonna walk away disappointed.

Nice bargain easy drinker when in the mood for some roasty with caramel flavor and some lightish lager vibes. Don't expect magic here, but do expect a reasonably nice head upon pouring, a light body, and something akin to an English dark mild. Drinking from a glass is must

Yuengling Black & Tan, is the beer I pickup, when I am jaded on gold lagers/stouts/ales/. Its flavor, feel, and experience, strikes a great balance between a darker - more robust beer, and a standard lager. It has a nice caramel flavor, but not in-your-face. It goes down surprisingly well — and would surprise the unwitting participant. At 4.7% abv, it won’t bludgeon you. Taking back a 6er is not an issue. I would Introduce those of whom have a Dark beer aversion, to this lovely, mid-priced offering. It’s been great for as long as I’ve consumed beer. Circa 89’.

 

Solid very drinkable dark beer. $9.99 for a 6 pack in south Jersey. Easy to drink and enjoyable in the cooler months. Super decent beer from Yuengling. Readily available around me, can’t complain!

 

 

 

Dark brown tip, black, and color with tan head. Coco to cola on the nose. Slightly malty flavor with a peppery finish. Nice smooth drinking porter. Good finish

Look - Nice dark brown with a slightly tan head and rimming
Smell and taste - malty and slightly caramel, pretty easy going
Feel - light body and carb
Overall - alright easy going darker beer

 

 

It's a solid dark beer at a decent price point. If I'm not feeling up to spending money on a higher end beer and I'm on the east coast I'll turn to this with no reservations. It's a solid beer that is better than decent.
