    My bastardized version of the Vesper, a.k.a. James Bond Martini:
    • 3 oz Bombay Sapphire
    • 1 oz Stiegl Radler
    • 1/2 oz Lillet Blanc
    • Twist of grapefruit peel
    Shaken, not stirred.

    I think sour beers have great potential in mixed drinks, and I'm particularly keen to try this one:

    Knob Kriek
    • 1 1/2 ounces bourbon
    • 6 ounces lambic, Belgian Kriek
    • 3/4 ounce lemon juice
    • 1/2 ounce maraschino liqueur
    Garnish: brandied cherry

    DIRECTIONS
    1. Add bourbon, lemon juice and maraschino to a cocktail shaker.
    2. Add ice and shake until chilled.
    3. Strain over ice into a Collins glass.
    4. Top with lambic and stir gently.
    5. Garnish with a brandied cherry.

    I have never tried it but I have always wanted to try a beer milkshake.

    I sometimes drop an ounce or so of buffalo trace into an imperial stout.

    Any chocolate stout and Grand Traverse Distillery's Cherry Vodka.

    I have a friend who used to get a shot of SoCo in his Labatts when we'd cross over to Windsor to drink before we turned 21.

    Create your own Turbid IPA. Add some Tropicana Grovestand Lots of Pulp Orange Juice to an IPA of your choice. Guaranteed to get the hazy, juicy characteristics which are all the rage. Most importantly it will look the part. :wink:

    Ive tried with Guinness and wasn't fond but with southern tiers blackwater beers like choklat or even pumking are reall good with vanilla ice cream.

    Nobody has mentioned a classic boilermaker?

    PBR with a shot of Jack dumped in.
