Drink Recipe

Black and Brown

A simple two-ingredient split pour that layers velvety, roasted Guinness over fizzy, sweet root beer. It looks striking, dark stout floating above amber soda with a creamy head, and tastes like coffee and chocolate notes tempered by vanilla-sweet sweetness, making it a nostalgic, dessert-style sipper worth trying.

Ingredients

  • 0.5 fill Guinness® Stout
  • 0.5 fill Root Beer

Instructions

  1. Start with a clean Pilsner glass and pour it half full with your favorite root beer.
  2. Take your time to ensure a gentle pour to preserve the carbonation and avoid foaming.
  3. Slowly pour the Guinness® Stout over the back of a spoon to fill the remaining half of the glass. This technique helps create a layered effect and prevents excess foaming.
  4. Serve immediately and enjoy your Black and Brown.
