Theres a certain stigma around shots of alcohol, and we think thats a shame. If youre enjoying your favorite spirits responsibly (and not throwing them back one after another) , theres no reason why you cant enjoy a good boilermaker (a shot and a beer) at your favorite bar or pub. We prefer sipping whiskey, dark rum, tequila, and other spirits neat, on the rocks, and mixed into flavorful, complex cocktails.
