Very very true.

I didn't mean to derail this thread into a PC debate. LOL

 

Thanks for the tip.

 

It's not about being PC, it's about thinking before one speaks or repeats something that is tragic even if, on the surface, it merely appears to be funny.

I have not had a "black and tan" for many years and when I did, I ordered it as "half Guinness, half Harp."

The problem with "car bombs" is that when ordering it's impossible to say "can I have half a pint of Guinness and a mixed shot of Jamison and Bailey's" in a crowded bar. "Car bombs" are tasty indeed - I just wish that someone would come up with a better name. How about "Irish Geyser?"

 

Well in that case we can just call it your mum.......illl see my self out

 

I think this stuff is great conversation. It's my favorite thing about Beer Advocate. I see lots of different opinions, but most debates are civil and often educational. Cheers.

 

Isn't there some kind of official name for a black & tan made with DFH World Wide Stout and DFH 120 Miunute IPA? I would try it once for the novelty factor, though I doubt it would be what we in these here parts call "good".

 

Sounds good. I've done it the Rick Bayless way and added tamarind puree for a 'Mexican Snake Bite', and those were pretty tasty as well.

 

I'm pretty sure I recall it being called a Heaven and Hell on the forums, but could be mistaken. Doesn't sound good to me either.

 

No option for zero, so I can't vote.

Guess I'm just a purist. I find all the beers I drink fully satisfying on their own so mixing them with other things is never even a thought.

 

The waitress at Dave and Busters couldn't serve me an irish car bomb because it constituted serving 2 drinks at once to a single person I'm not sure why this is a problem. However they didnt have a problem serving me half a pint of Guinness and my very pregnant wife a shot of Baileys. I did the right thing and dropped it in my beer.

 

You need a zero in the survey.

 

I worked the early shift right out of college and after I was done I used to meet my buddies out to shoot pool everyday. That was a long time ago but have some great memories. One of those was pounding Dr. Peppers. Drop a shot of amaretto in a "lite" beer and chug it. Sh$t tastes just like Dr. Pepper, and I love Dr. Pepper. It's ok to have fun with beer.
