Whether the Harvey Wallbanger cocktail carries the name of its inventor seems to be lost in a cloud of alcohol fumes. Pancho's Bar in Manhattan Beach and the Office in Newport Beach both have been cited as its birthplace in the 1960s or '70s.
One story holds that the drink honors "a surfer named Harvey [who] liked his screwdrivers spiked with Galliano and, after a hard day, had one too many and walked into a wall."
