Guinness & Bailey's is an "Irish Car Bomb" (or is it Guinness & Jameson?. Hmmm...)

Guinness & Cassis (black currant) is a "Black Velvet"

I've seen the Irish Car Bomb as Guinness and Jameson's or Guinness, Jameson's, AND Bailey's.

A "Black Velvet" is usually a Guinness and Champagne/sparkling wine, but Cassis is an alternative. It's pretty good with the champagne.

We're kind of off the rails on this thread now, but Guinness and V8 is a strangely tasty drink. And try pouring some Guinness over good vanilla ice cream in a blender for a Guinness milkshake sometime. It's really good.

In the end, the black stuff is best left all by itself.
