Guest guest Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 Ah, no Erin, a half and a half are drunk in quick succession but not in the same glass. It would be considered sacrilege to mix a good malt whisky with water let alone beer. that looks an interesting site and may have me dusting off the contents of my drinks cupboard this weekend.
