American black and tan?

[CUBrewing]

What are anyone's thoughts on an American style Black and Tan. Like a hoppy american stout and and maybe an apa? I just was thinking about earlier and was wondering if anyone tried before or if I'm onto an original idea.

I did a Belgian imp stout and Bel Pale once, that was really good.

I've had a Victory Donnybrook/Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA at The Distillery in Savannah.
Very nice.

When I had my 4 tap kegerator (1 nitro) I tried every beer I put on nitro layered with the other three I had on tap. Over the course of trying probably 30+ combos, I found that about 20% were awesome, 10% were undrinkable (but I still drank them, I don't waste beer), and 70% were pretty good to ok. Usually mixing one really bitter or a more extreme flavor profile with a more docile style worked the best. I had a Roggenbier on the nitrogen and layered it with a black imperial IPA and it was outstanding! However, once the roggenbier kicked, I had an RIS on the nitro and it layered terribly with a Belgian trippel, but was really good with a cali common. It was a lot of fun trying all of them though.

DFH 120 and World Wide Stout are amazing together. May sound ridiculous, but it's not.

I have tried a few combinations but I always go back to Guiness and Bass, I like the traditional in this asspect.

My favorite black and tan combo was my oatmeal stout and my Ruination clone together. It was great!
