Anyone ever had any REALLY nice cocktails that have beer in them? I had one that had gin, grapefruit, and IPA in it and it was pretty good. Just wanted to hear if anyone else had had anything that was tasty and well crafted?
Cheers!

Just needs a bunch of lime juice! Wife keeps some 40s of Mexican beer like Tecate or Sol around for just these drinks. For my money, better than a Bloody Mary for hangovers...
Also had something called a Flaming Dr Pepper. Mug of light lager beer (think the place was using Coors), some kind of liquor in a shot glass (don't remember what it was, sure Google could help if I wasn't lazy). Light the top of the shot and drop it into the beer. It foams up and you have to slam it... but it tastes almost exactly like Dr Pepper. Too easy to drink LOL
I've had that ipa, grapefruit, and gin cocktail before at a beer tasting in november and I'm still thinking about it. You don't have a preferred recipe do you?
Colorado Mimosa: 50% Avery White Rascal, 50% OJ. Awesome with a breakfast burrito or Huevos Rancheros.

The gimmick being that as you drink the martini, the beer will slowly filter down. It was okay I guess but i would never order it. We used to make Beer-Garita's in college which were way better! Actually they were horrible but it was college and it kept us entertained for a couple of hours.
Wow, I wouldn't want to use my dwindling stash making a mixed drink. There must be a more readily available stout to do that with.
dry cider and stout, 50/50. sounds weird but it's pretty good. it's a bit of a 2+2=3 drink though, a good stout or a good cider on its own is just better
not beer, but cider.
Gallon of local cider, left in the windowsill for a few days to ferment the old-fashioned way.
2 parts cider, 1 part bourbon. Mix, serve over ice.

That reminds me. Do one of those except use a Dogfish head Palo Santo instead of a Guinness. Try having two of those in a night, wheew.
