Has anyone heard of an Australian drink called a Shanty? It's half
beer and half 7up. Probably short for "shandygaff," the name I've heard. Can also be made with ginger ale. Seems like a waste of beer. It's not bad. Try it. vince norris |

I could be a ladies drink, much like Black velvets in Scotland. IIRC a
Black Velvet is half hard cider and half Guiness Stout or maybe any other stout that's available. I tried it once but I prefer my stout to be straight. YMMV. Cheers!
