recent cocktails
Boilermaker: Shot of whiskey and a beer Depth charge: Shot of whiskey dropped into a beer (fun!) Shandy: beer and lemonade Shandygaff: strong beer and ginger beer Red Eye: beer and tomato juice I ordered a shandygaff at the Edinburgh Castle pub in San Francisco once, but I think I got beer and lemonade.

recent cocktail
There are many cocktails made with all sorts of exotic names. there are beer cocktails as well. Somre of those I remember are:
Black Velvet: Guinness and champagne
Mother-in-law: Old and bitter
Grandmother: Old and mild
Snake bite: Lager and cider
Black and Tan: Guinness and bitter
Snake bite is one of those drinks that has the (quite false) reputation of making its users far more drunk than would be the case were they to be drinking either one of the drinks on its own. This simple truth is that cider, especially scrumpy, can be very strong at between 8% and 10%. Premium lagers, too, can be strong and thus the mixture is a fairly lethal one- but it's the alcohol, not the mixing, that does the trick.
Anyone know any more beer cocktail names?
