I was told using an ale makes it a dark and tan, or do I have this backwards?
You're right. A Black and Tan is what I've heard it called. I assumed half/half was the same, but, after thinking about it being called such, it makes sense you were speaking of something different. I look forward to trying it!

...by the way, what time is it?
1348, and yes Black and Tan not Dark and Tan
