Beer Cocktails

you kiddin? my cat loves my bar, friggin animal wont even get off it when I am making drinks...

 

Beer/Cocktail = mash-up

 

Irish Car Bombs are pretty good. Made by dropping a shot glass of Baileys with a touch of Irish Whiskey into a glass of Guiness stout and then chugging it. I know Corona isn't a favorite here, but instead of a lime pour Bacardi Lemon, or similar liquor, into the neck of the bottle and enjoy.

 

i like beer for what the master brewer intended it to be. that is all.

 

I've always liked the sound of crank:

"Crank.
To make a sixpenny glass, add a slice of lemon, and half a wine-glassful of fine porter, to the quantity of warm gin and water and sugar that would constitute a fourpenny glass of gin and water."

No. Maybe if it was terrible or I had money to burn.

 

I'm not sure why I did it, probably because I only had a little bit of the bottle left, but I added about a shot or less of Three Olives Smores to a bottle of Founders Breakfast Stout. It's actually pretty good and adds a whole layer of depth to it.

What experiments have you tried that worked out well? Or more humorously, didn't work so well?

Full disclosure: I bought a case of FBS, so I had some to tinker with

 

My favorite is a splash of bourbon in a Schlafly Pumpkin Ale. Very tasty.

 

Winter solstice while sipping a glass of Crown on the rocks. The vanilla and toffee notes from the beer mellow the crown. Yum

 

I like to put a shot of Pappy Van Winkle in my Night Stalker.

 

I add a little vanilla vodka to espresso stout

 

Hazelnut liqueur mixed with Double Jack is fantastic

 

Splash of Woodford in half a bomber of Dark o'the Moon. I called it a Howl at the Moon.

 

I've yet to try it but was just told about this the other day...Sam Adams Cherry Wheat with a shot of Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey.

 

FBS with a splash of bourbon maybe?.... or a mix of FBS and BCBS?

 

I've gown very fond of 1oz Buffalo Trace into a snifter of FBS. I personally prefer it to KBS, but that's one man's opinion.

 

Have not tried KBS but i am drinking a FBS now and in think it needs a shot of Jim Beam. Will see how it goes.

Cheers!

 

Definitely add less than a standard shot, probably half. Otherwise it becomes too boozy.

 

Roger that!

 

Another beer cocktail I've been told of but have not yet tried: Stiegl Grapefruit Radler with gin. Sounds great on paper.
