• Radler: beer & lemon soda
      • Berliner Weisse: beer & raspberry syrup

      Those are the two I know; there are others.

      The Germans, who among all people are known for their long and storied association with beer above all else, regularly mix beer with random stuff. If they do it, I’d argue it’s more normal than American purism.

        Oh there is more:

        • Russ: wheat beer & lemon soda
        • Cola-Weizen: wheat beer & coke
        • Kirschgoaß: dark beer & coke & cherry liquor & cognac usually served as a 1L Maß
        • Almradler: beer & Almdudler (an Austrian herbal soda)
        • at an Irish Pub: Irish Car Bomb: Stout & Irish Cream & Whiskey (it’s surprisingly good and packs a punch)

            Between it and a black and tan I’m fully convinced some people just associated things with Ireland and called beverages that without bothering to learn anything about the country’s struggle against colonialism.

            Anyways please enjoy my new signature cocktail the 9/11, it’s a tall glass of bourbon, Malibu, and everclear served flaming.

              black and tan

              I think it’s called half-and-half in Ireland (guess they are more sensitive about war crimes).
              Personally I like a Snakebite better: Lager & Cider

              Except that black and tan entered American and British English usage in the 1890s as a name for the drink before it became associated with the Black and Tans in the 1920s.

              Granted, I wouldn’t use it in reference to the drink in Ireland and there may be some argument against its usage in the modern UK. But this is a rare case where we Americans haven’t coined an offensive phrase for something (Irish Car Bomb cancels out this small victory).

              I’d make my 9/11 as a smoked double Manhattan in a chilled collins glass made with Russell’s Single Reserve 110-proof Bourbon with a twist of lemon.
