This week, we're joined by Jordan Paley as we keep it simple, and discuss a ubiquitous two ingredient mixed drink - the boilermaker. We talk about how the pairing of a beer and a shot of whiskey got its name, became so wide spread, and what kind of place the boilermaker has as the world of craft beer, craft whiskey, and craft cocktails continues to get ever more complicated!
Cocktails Discussed:
Surfside
1 1/2 oz. Rod & Hammer's SLO Stills Cask Bourbon Whiskey
Leashless Brewing Cheater 5 Belgian Style Pilsner
Serve whiskey as a shot alongside a chilled glass of the beer. Enjoy separately, or pour the whiskey into the beer.
M & M
1 1/2 oz. Malahat Spirits Single Malt Whiskey
Malibu Brewing Company Big Rock Amber Lager
Serve whiskey as a shot alongside a chilled glass of the beer. Enjoy separately, or pour the whiskey into the beer.
