The Boilermaker started out as a nothing-fancy drink consumed by blue collar workers after a factory shift some 200 years ago. It remains, at its core, a drink best drunk shoulder-to-shoulder along the bar at a local joint. When heading down the block is out of the question, a Boilermaker is all the more necessary to remind us of those better nights amongst strangers and friends alike. And, we gotta admit, it complements the desperate mood of the hour. As far as whiskey-and-beer pairings go, here are a few recommendations, although there is quite literally no way to mess this one up. Repeat as necessary.
Wild Turkey 101 rye whiskey, chased with cheap lager
Maker’s Mark bourbon, chased with amber ale
Jameson Irish whiskey, chased with Belgian pale ale
Laphroaig 10 Year Old single malt scotch, chased with IPA

Has to be a case of mistaken identity. Pettifogger should ask to call his attorney.

If I were Pettifogger, I’d be confused anyway. Door opens left in first panel and right in third. Gimme another, bartender. I’m seeing things again
