Commercial Description:
Dating back to 18th century England, the custom of blending pale and dark beers has kept the "Black & Tan" a favorite of experienced beer drinkers for centuries. Our famous recipe combines a robust English Porter with a fine Continental Pilsner, preserving the character of each, while creating the classic taste of the legendary "Black & Tan." In true American style, we bring you the best of both beers as they meet in Mississippi Mud.

Jug. Poured a Dark brown with red highlights and a tan head. Aroma of malt. Creamy on the palate with a malty caramel taste.

Pours a translucent copper with a thin fizzy offwhite. The nose is diacteyl, corn, mild leafy hops, sweet, not good. The flavor is corny, sweet, earthy, mild leafy hops. Not too good.

[Jug] given to me by my buddies for my birthday. Is this a joke? Well, going with the occasion, I didnt even pour this into a glass, but the aroma was fairly bland, with some roasty porter notes and some hoppy pale ale notes. Flavor really was better than I was expecting. Kind of like a light pale ale with some roasted barley and toasted malt in there too.

bottle caught my eye Deep red color. Not what I was expecting. I guess I was expecting something the consistency of used motor oil to ooze from the bottle. Big fluffy head, pour with caution or you’ll end up waiting a couple days before you even get to try your beer. More hops in the nose than in the mouth. A watery mouthfeel for a B&T. If I hadn’t read the label, I’d have thought I was drinking a dark-colored amber lager

The color is a dark brown, with a sent of malt, slight grassy hops, and some caramels.the taste is a malty taste with a finish of light hops. I find this alittle watery. this brew does have nice lacing, overall this isnt to bad.

It pours a nice dark amber-mahogany with a thick, pale beige, fairly persistent head. Aroma is malty and has just a hint of fruit. Flavor is malty and has touches of smoke and molasses, pleasant but not thick or mouth-filling. Texture is smooth and just a little watery. Not too shabby. Hey, how come it’s called Mississippi Mud when it’s brewed in New York? ;)

Jug. Black beer with a creamy head. Nothing particularly complex about the flavor, a fairly smooth and solid blend. As the name suggests, it feels somewhat thick on the palate. A favorite beer to toss in the back of a pickup truck and take off-roading.

Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is roastey and somewhat nutty. Flavor is very watery with some malty mess. Finish is again watery and not very good. I would not call this a porter by any means. Cool jug contanier though.
