The Fantastic Pour

THE FANTASTIC POUR Brett welcomes Pop Culture Basement host Mike Jamison to the Fantasti-Lounge for a new edition of the Fantastic Pour! We talk Green Arrow, layer a black and tan, and read Green Arrow #81.  Join us in the Fantasti-Lounge as we discuss if Oliver Queen is the John McClane of the DC Universe, the best black and tan spoon usage, watching cable at your aunt's house, a Philadelphia therapy session, and much, much more! Secret Pour-igins: Black and Tan Cocktail: Black and Go Birds Ingredients (per drink): 12oz can of Guiness 12oz can or bottle of Yards Pale Ale 1 Pint Glass 1 metal spoon Instructions (per drink) First, pour the Yards Pale Ale directly into the bottom of the glass, this will release enough carbonation to create a little foamy head. Fill the glass halfway. Let it settle for a minute. Then place a spoon rounded-side up inside the glass, with the tip of the spoon pressed against the edge of the glass. Open the Guiness and slowly, carefully pour the stout over the spoon so it fans out over the edges of the spoon. This allows the Guiness to settle on top of the Yards Pale Ale in an even layer, creating a divided black and tan. You can buy a special black and tan spoon, or even bend a regular spoon back so you can fit it inside the glass, but any relatively flat spoon will work.
