It’s believed the drink takes its name from the workers who built and maintained steam locomotives in the 1800s. These workers were known to head to the bar at the end of the shift, and a shot of whiskey with a beer became a staple for quickly easing the pain that came from a hard day of back-breaking labour. As it was the drink consumed by boilermakers, it took on the name as well. How to drink a Boilermaker 1. The first method is your most basic, and the purists would have you believe it’s the classic: you drink the entire shot and then chase it with the beer 2. Go going back and forth between the two drinks, taking a sip of the shot and then a gulp of the beer, until each drink is finished. This will enhance the pairing. 3. How it often goes down in London – a practice that is gaining popularity in the States as well – drop the shot directly into the beer Boilermakers- £8.50 Stubborn Mule Pre Prohibition and Wild Turkey 101 Goose Island 312 and Makers Mark Einstock and Kings Ginger Liqueur Collesi Ambrata and Limoncello 17 Chapter Seven Henry Builds a Time Machine White Wine Canyon Road Pinot Grigio 11.00% / 75cl / USA Pinot Grigio showcases floral aromas with inviting flavours of summer ripened apple and pear.
