According to Cargo magazine (cargomag.com) March 2006, "In 1861 Britain was rocked by the death of Prince Albert. Members of London's snooty Brook's Club were in mourning, and the steward decided that if champagne must be drunk, it should be shrouded in black, too. So he darkened all the bubbly with a 1:1 mix of Guinness. The result is an effervescent blend of fruity wine and mellow stout that's actually quite elegant."

Move to Wikibooks? No, because this article is more than a recipe, e.g. because of such historic reference to Bismarck. --89.57.26.245 20:27, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Someone keeps adding this information to the article, but I see nothing to suggest that it is accurate. Anyone know what this is all about? -SpuriousQ (talk) 22:17, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

I see nothing to suggest that anything in this article is valid. None of the refences are applicable or valid. TinyMark 19:41, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
