I'm wondering though. I've been wondering but haven't pursued trying to
find out. Guinness is Irish; Bass is English. The Black and Tans were
basically the terrorist branch of the English army during the Irish
revolution. Somehow I doubt, given that fact, that the name "black and
tan" is coincidental. Or that the clash of English and Irish in the
glass is coincidental. Something to think about. Nothing I have answers
about.

Hi, Marie. :)
The first time I tried beer it was something cheep and I was like, "Hmm.
Okay. Hmm." And I tried it a few other times without quite
understanding why Homer says, "Mmmm. Beer," though I discovered that
there was a reason to drink good beer rather than cheap beer. But. What
happened was. One day. I *wanted* a beer. "What is it that I need?" I
thought. "It's beer! Off to the Heorot!!"
Really the only proof that beer might be a worthwhile taste to acquire is
all the people who say it is. Which includes CS Lewis, and everybody
listens to CS Lewis. :)
Here end my two cents,
Fred
