Glad to see everyone enjoying St. Patrick's Day with some green beer and Guinness layered over green beer.

Yes! There are green layered beers, especially for St. Patrick’s Day. The most common way to create them is by adding green food coloring to the lighter layer of a traditional layered beer cocktail, such as a Black and Tan or a Half and Half (Guinness and Harp).
Here are a few examples of green layered beers:

Green and Black (Green Half & Half) – A twist on the classic Half and Half, where Harp Lager (or another pale lager) is dyed green before layering Guinness on top.
Green and Gold – A combination of a green-colored pale ale or lager and a darker amber or red ale layered on top.
Emerald Stout – Green-dyed cider or wheat beer on the bottom with a stout like Guinness on top.

The key to achieving a clean layer is using beers with different densities, just like a traditional Black and Tan. Have you ever tried making one?
