  Sake Bomb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The sake bomb or sake bomber is a drink made by pouring sake into a shot glass and dropping it into a glass of beer.
The table is then slammed with two balled fists, and the sake drops into the beer.
The drink is extolled in the song "Sake Bomb" by New Zealand band The D4.

There, sake is served in elegant crystal wine glasses, not shot glasses, as is common at your down-home neighborhood sushi place.
We also sampled a hot sake called Suishin Junmai, which the menu noted had a "rich body" and a "bright, crisp finish." It very well might have, but it was difficult to get past the sake's warmth, which seemed to heighten the sinus-clearing scent.

"Sake" in Japanese simply translates to "alcoholic beverage." Sake liquor is made from rice and boasts an especially high alcohol content (18 percent by volume) due to the increased starch digesting enzymes that make more sugars available to the yeast for fermentation.
Sake became popular in the United States after World War II when American soldiers in Japan discovered the exotic beverage.
Sake bombing, actually more popular in the U.S. than in Japan, owes part of its popularity to the drama of its consumption.
