You know a movie hero is downtrodden when you watch him slam back a shot, then immediately chug down a beer. That’s a boilermaker — the toughest one-two punch in cocktail culture.
You Will Need
- Whiskey
- Beer
- A small shot glass
- A pint glass
- A little courage
Step 1: Fill shot glass
Fill the shot glass with whiskey.
Step 2: Pour beer
Pour the beer into the pint glass. This will be the “chaser” for the whiskey.
In a “depth charge,” the shot glass is dropped upright into the beer mug. The resulting fizz, yup, encourages immediate chugging.
Step 3: Drink shot
Drink the shot of whiskey.
Step 4: Wash it down
Wash it down with the beer.
The Boiler Makers of Purdue University aren’t named for the drink – the name’s a reference to the school’s engineering students, who designed and made boilers for locomotive engines.
