Potioncat:
I really cannot remember. We know Aberforth is the barman. Harry knows 
Aberforth is DD's brother. Does Harry know Aberforth is the barman?

(This is one way the unreliable narrator is used, when the narrator 
sees something but doesn't "know" what he sees, but the reader knows. 
It's used in Huck Finn this way too.)

If canon shows that Harry does know that DD's brother Abeforth is the 
barman,then pay no attention to the sentences behind the ( ).
