I tried one of these the other night. Different, but pretty good. They're made by pouring a half glass of champagne and then pouring a half glass of stout over the top. You're supposed to pour the stout such that it doesn't layer, but apparently my technique wasn't quite what it should be.
I used an asti spumante with Mackeson's XXX Stout.
Anybody else ever tried one of these?

If it makes you feel any better, I was wearing socks by the pool. It was about 65 and my feet were a bit chilly. And when company's not staying at the house, I drink Bud Light.
The little guy didn't seem all that impressed with Christmas. I guess since he was with us when we bought his presents, he wasn't real surprised.

Reminds me of a cartoon I saw. It shows all these women examining racks of empty hangers at what looks like a garage sale. There's this naked guy sitting on a throne behind them -- waiting to take their money, I suppose. The caption reads: The Emperor's Old Clothes

Bob, just remember to curl up the decorative string on the present (you know, you run the scissors along the string and it winds up all tightly curled . . . )
I think I'll stop now - this is sounding bad . . .
wanders off to pour a glass of cheap wine, since that is what is affordable at the moment . . .
