Boilermaker (beer Cocktail)

A boilermaker is a beer cocktail consisting of a glass of beer and a shot of whisky. The beer is either served as a chaser or is mixed with the liquor. When the beer is served as a chaser, the drink is often called simply a shot and a beer or a beer and a bump.

In the United Kingdom, a boilermaker is a shot of bourbon or rye whiskey dropped into a glass of English pale ale.
