    Description

    Guinness metal Pouring Spoon, Toucan or Regular, which is the Guinness name on the handle.
    Perfect for 'layered drinks'.
    Pour the Guinness onto the back of the Pouring Spoon so that it ''fans'' out over the 2nd drink creating a dividing line between both drinks. [Picture 3 is a perfect "Half and Half", so Guinness and Harp Lager, used with one of these spoons.
    I have to admit that for years I've tried, with varying success, to pour a layer drink with just a substitute tablespoon. Yes, it cost me really nothing, everyone has them, but I FINALLY 'bit the bullet', and got my own pouring spoon. The result: Fabulous! There is no better way to easily make a layered drink, take my word for it....
    Here is how it 'works':
    Pour the Guinness onto the back of the Pouring Spoon so that it ''fans'' out over the 2nd drink creating a dividing line between both drinks. [Illustrated instructions are pictured on the front of the retail cardboard packet.]
    Remember, the Guinness goes in last, on top.
    HINT: From experience, a 12 oz. 'pint' glass works best if you do not have kegs. Pour the Guinness is as slowly as possible, and for each additional drink a fresh glass, or dry one, is best. Even washed out, with some water remaining, a glass will let the Guinness 'slip' lower into the base layer of Harp Lager or whatever you choose. Thus, not as 'clean' a layer distinction, visually....
    Suggested drinks to use this spoon with are:
    Black and Tan [Guinness and Bass Ale]
    Half and Half [Guinness and Harp's Lager]
    Black Velvet [Guinness and Champagne...any kind]
    Blacksmith [Guinness and Smithwick's ]
    Black and Blue [Guinness and Blue Moon OR Guinness and Wachusett Blueberry Ale or perhaps any blueberry ale or beer]
    Black Orchard [Guinness and Angry Orchard Hard Cider]
    And my personal favorite, besides Half and Half:  Darkling [Guinness and Yuengling Lager, featured in some Irish pubs Pottsville, PA. home of the Yuengling Brewery].
    Layered beer drinks are sort of a novelty in the USA, yet now gaining momentum, but not in Europe. There, at least in Ireland, they are common enough at any pub. I enjoy them, and have attempted, with varying degrees of success, to make them without a pouring spoon. It can be done, but is agonizingly slow, and a very steady hand is needed.
    Now, one can try their own combination! But always remember, the 'beer' goes in first, half way, then the Guinness goes the other half way. One thing I found: Some beers are not suitable. Their 'body' is simply not proper to 'hold' the Guinness up, and form a barrier, half way. Thus, the beers mix immediately, not the desired result! So, if your attempt fails, it might not be you, but that particular beer won't 'work'.
    This pouring spoon is the right tool for the job, as they say!
    4 1/2" long.
