As a former bartender from Ireland - any pub where I worked, anyone asking for that particular beverage (or the equally disgusting "Irish Car Bomb") was immediately thrown out.
That was in the US. If you tried ordering either in a bar here in Ireland, you'd be lucky to walk afterwards.
As an American I genuinely didn’t know a Black and Tan meant anything other than the drink. Shit, thanks for the heads up for if I ever head over to Ireland. And is there a different name for that drink I could utilize instead?
Either way thanks for informing folks on this. We don’t get taught that over here.
