I’ve also heard of “Snakebite” which is a Guinness and a Hard Cider
Michaelon January 22, 2010 at 1:58 PM
Probably, Guinness + Two Brother’s Red Eye Coffee Porter = Black Eye (This could get crazy…)
Matton January 22, 2010 at 4:27 PM
Any experience with the Black and Blue? The other ones sound great except the cider, but the Blue Moon and Guinness just doesn’t sound good to me.
Tomon January 22, 2010 at 4:56 PM
The Black & Blue is good…at least worth a try. Finishes light and the way the two beers blend is cool to watch.
Meganon January 22, 2010 at 6:25 PM
I used to really like the Black Velvets and Snakebites, but haven’t had one in a few years. May need to order one up soon!

Just rocked the classic Guinness & Bass with buddies after work at Coogan’s Saloon on Wacker in the Loop. Man, nothing beats the original Black & Tan combo…
Guinness + St. Pauli Girl = Black Beauty?
Guinness + Old Engine Oil = Black Gold?
Guinness + Magic Hat #9 = Black Magic?
Guinness + Orange Juice = Disgusting.Bretton January 23, 2010 at 12:40 AM
Guiness + milwaukees best = black beast
Noelon January 23, 2010 at 1:33 PM
Guinness + Rogue’s Dead Guy = The Black Death
This combo would be magical if you served it lukewarm, methinks…
Noelon January 23, 2010 at 1:35 PM
Also, if you mixed a Red Ale and an Oktoberfest, you could call it “Red October”.
Noelon January 23, 2010 at 1:43 PM
And another I just thought of: Guinness + Boddington’s! What would you even call that? Armageddon?
Tayloron January 23, 2010 at 4:00 PM
Man. Guinness and Boddington’s would be insane. So good!
Tomon January 23, 2010 at 4:26 PM
That would be interesting. I’m not sure it would look like a typical B&T though. I think you need a beer that is not nitrogen pushed to compliment Guinness. I want to try it though…
Tomon February 8, 2010 at 2:49 PM
Guinness + Bud Light = Bud Light w/Guinness. I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Tomon March 27, 2010 at 8:34 AM
So I was at a bar last night found a couple more combinations.
Guinness + Sam Adams = The Patriot (how original)
Guinness + Boddingtons = BubblebeeIgnacio G. Abreuon March 5, 2011 at 1:55 PM
Celtic Threesome: I just created it last night on March 5, 2011. Three layers. 1/3 Harp, then 1/3 1/3 Smithwicks, and topped off with 1/3 Guinness. It tasted great. The Harp and Smithwicks mixed a bit, so the pour needs to be worked on.

What would Guinness + Arrogant Bastard be ???
Erikon May 27, 2012 at 12:49 PM
Guinness + Ginger Ale = Guinness Shandy
So good on a hot afternoon, and the Ginger Ale lightens the weight of the Guinness a bit.

Also this isn’t Guinness related But. I mixed Founders All Day IPA and Founders Rubaeus and it was awesome!!! It’s a Raspberry All Day!! Give it a try!
T&Gon September 6, 2017 at 4:06 PM
If you were, hypothetically, to mix a rum with Guinness, which one would you use?

I’ve never made one, but I’ve always thought if I made a Guinness and Shiner Bock I’d call it a Black Eye.

Guinness and Revolver Blood and Honey
Revolver is located located in Granbury, and is widely available on tap in the DFW metroplex.

Only an idiot will order a Black & Tan in the Republic of Ireland. It is fine to ask a native for the definition of a black & tan.

Had a Dublin milkshake last night, (Guinness and a shot of TIA Maria) which is pretty good but a bit expensive!
Went back for seconds tonight and did a pint of Guinness with a shot of black sambuca … Different… Not unpleasant but would be interested in someone else’s opinion on it….
But a name??.. Black Sambo?… sorry, not the most “politically correct ” name I’m sure but seems to fit well considering the ingredients!

I added about two tablespoons of Licor 43 to my Guinness. It was delicious. I call it Dark Spain. Add a little more or less to suit your taste.

Addition and comment:
Guinness & Guinness Blonde – Black & Blonde
The original Black Velvet was Guinness & Champagne. What has become black velvet was actually termed Poor Man’s Velvet (Guinness and cider – any cider/not specific).
Now with the loss of Bass except in the UK I understand. The original (Black and Tan) is replaced with a number of things that aren’t the same.
Frankly my favorite was Guinness and John Courage.
Chris Koperon September 29, 2023 at 6:35 PM
I always heard Guinness and Hoegaarden together referred to as a dirty hoe, please pardon the obscenity.
