And my "Riddler (The Anti-Shandy)" is being judged at 0:42... 10% Orange-brandied Baltic Stout with Moet on top. Inspired by Never Go Back and Piper Heidseick.

 

Judges feedback:

"Who'd be crazy enough to serve Moet with beer?"

is that the beer David looks a bit hesitant about after he sniffs it then goes back for another whiff?

Yeh... I talked to him later and he seemed to really like it. I'm sure it confused them a bit at first but it is not a new thing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Velvet_(beer_cocktail).  I've been drinking loads of them this year and my favourite is the one mentioned above - with Liberty and Piper.

 

It came second in the Media-Brewer Collaboration after the Epic + Victoria Wells (of Dish Magazine). It was meant to be served with the straight beer next to it, so they could sample that on its own.
