Normally, a really bad idea, unless it comes from the Cantillon
brewery in Brussels, Belgium, home to the Vigneronne and St Lamvinus
grape lambics.

The generic name is just a "beer cocktail." There are all sorts of
variations on this theme. Guinness and Chambord, for instance:
Scarlet & Black. Not as bad as one might think; it resembles a
raspberry-flavored chocolate brownie, but in liquid form.
