Geoff:
Picking up on your thoughts that the Half-blood Prince is a person and 
then also your reminder that it might be the name of a inn has been 
suggested, many UK pubs with names like that are so named because it 
was a real person or possibly a character from a story or legend....

So we could /possibly/ score double points for that.

PS I have my doubts about a drink. Can you imagine going into the Three 
Broomsticks and asking "May I have a pint of Half-blood Prince please?" 
It just doesn't sound right.
