Harvey Weissbanger
A shaken highball of vodka, Galliano, dry vermouth, orange and lemon juice and egg white, with weissbier and clove syrup adding a spiced, beery depth. Created by Eric Bourque at Hopgood's Foodliner in Toronto in 2013.

Eric Bourque created the Harvey Weissbanger in 2013 at Hopgood's Foodliner in Toronto. The name plays on the Harvey Wallbanger, a drink Bourque used to make for a grandfather named Harvey, who liked its odd name. Other attempts at the idea existed, but none satisfied Bourque. Clove syrup ties the drink to the banana, clove and coriander notes of weissbier, with lemon and the vanilla in Galliano standing in for the banana.
