Pros: Good Beer, Large Quantity, Designer Bottle Cons: Not sold at gas stations or small stores hehe
This beer is really good...They blended a robust English Porter beer with a fine Continental Pilsner and preserved the character of each and came out with Black and Tan.. I really didn't know what to expect and asked several people what they thought of...

Pros: Better than you've heard Cons: Hard to find
Black and Tan has a special place in my heart, and I was introduced to this magical wold of alcoholic alchemy by this large, odd jug. MM has a strong body and a surprisingly subtle taste, something that keeps it flying off the shelves at Trader Joe's (a...

Pros: aroma, taste, not too expensive Cons: you eventually drink the whole thing
You're at home. It's been a long day of work or watching tv and you want a beer. A good beer. A dark beer. Actually you want a black and tan, but don't want to go through the effort of getting bass and guinness and making one float on the other. I mean...

Pros: Best damn beer I've tried in a while! Cons: Not cheap!
Old Dave likes beer. I could claim to have to have a body by Budwieser but that wouldn't be the complete truth. My body is due to the fact that my wife is such a wonderful cook and part is due to beer.
I don't spend my time after work going to...

Pros: Good tasting beer. Cons: Expensive and hard to find.
I have a little different information about the Mississippi Mud beer than Ingrid. I don't know where she is writing from but I do agree that it is not readily available. I had to drive seventy-five miles, one way, to buy one bottle for $2.99 each. I had...

Pros: unique taste, cute bottle Cons: a bit expensive for the casual beer drinker
Well, I'm not sure who my opinion will be useful to. I am not into all types of beers. and definately, this was the first black and tan I ever tasted. I'm not a really experianced beer drinker. I usually stick to lite beers for the lower calories. I...

Pros: good blend Cons: difficult to find
While I am generally cynical about the idea of a pre-packaged, pre-mixed black and tan, I thoroughly enjoy Mississippi Mud's version of my all time favorite beverage! The dark taste of Guiness mixed with a refreshing lager is not lost in its bottled...

Pros: Price, smoothness Cons: not complex for "serious" beer drinkers
I have to admit, this is my favorite "drinkin' beer." For a BYOB get-together with friends, nothing can beat dragging around a 32 oz. (1 quart) jug of Mississippi Mud.
I feel it should be said right off that Mud is not a...

Pros: Wide mouth bottle Cons: Large bottle to carry around in a bar.
I have to say the only true black and tan is Guinness Layered over Bass. Some people get the Irish version of Harp layered over Guinness which is know as a Half and Half. I would not go to Ireland walk into a pub and ask for a Black and Tan. The...

Pros: Great with a lot of different foods Cons: 32ozs. in a jug
What a great combo, a truly robust porter combined with a very good pilsner. This Black and Tan is all that!!!. I usually try to taste a few different kinds of beer, some I manage to come back to and others, well let's just say didn't quite make...

Pros: Good taste Unique Bottle Cons: Not available in alot of areas
I first found this beer I was on a military base in New York and was at one of the few places to eat that we could access. The first thing you will notice is the great bottle that this beer comes in and I figured that at the very least I would have a ...

Pros: A smooth, tasty, British style brew. Cons: Dumb name
Though the bottle says that this is a "black and tan" style brew, it really isn't. It is much more akin to "brown and bitter," a 50/50 mixture of bitter and brown ale popular in English pubs. If you are looking for the dark complexities of a black and...

Pros: Packaging Cons: Taste
This Mississippi Mud is exactly that. Mud! It belongs in the bottom of the Mississippi River. This is an American macro-brew attempt at capitalizing on the well know drink mixture of Guinness and Bass. Mississippi Mud is a poor attempt at the unique...

Pros: Rich full flavor hits the spot Cons: The 32 oz jug might be too big sometimes
I figured the bottle was a gimmick to attract more customers, but this Black & Tan beer is perfect for sitting around with guys and enjoying a smooth dark beer. This beer is too good to be "chugged," it should be savored, and enjoyed....
