Boilermaker
A Boilermaker is a classic beer cocktail that combines a shot of liquor with a glass of beer. Traditionally, the shot is dropped into the beer and consumed quickly, making it a popular choice in bars and pubs.
Equipment
- Pint glass
- Shot glass
- Jigger
Ingredients
- 1.5 oz whiskey commonly bourbon or rye
- 12 oz lager or pale ale
Instructions
- Pour the lager or pale ale into a pint glass, filling it about three-quarters full.
- Measure 1.5 oz (45 ml) of whiskey into a shot glass.
- Carefully drop the shot glass filled with whiskey into the pint glass containing the beer.
- Consume the drink quickly, either by drinking directly from the pint glass or by taking the shot first followed by the beer.
Notes
The Boilermaker can be customized using different types of beer and spirits, but the traditional combination is whiskey and lager. Enjoy responsibly!
