 Boilermaker (cocktail) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Boilermaker is a cocktail consisting of a shot of whiskey, tequila, or vodka, and a glass of beer (therefore sometimes also called simply a shot and a beer).
A shot glass of the liquor may be dropped into the beer from the surface just before drinking, glass and all - this technique is referred to as a depth charge in some circles.
Upon the shot glass striking the bottom of the mug, the carbonation in the beer begins to fizz violently, requiring the drinker to immediately consume the entire drink, either leaving the shot glass in the mug, or grasping it with the lips when setting down the mug.

A person is nominated to provide the first 'depth charge' - this could be a shot of whiskey but it must be in a small shot glass that can be 'floated' in the beer mug.
The person who sinks the depth charge must pull it out of the beer quickly and down it, and purchase the next depth charge.
