Boilermaker

A boilermaker can refer to two types of beer cocktail.

In American terminology, the drink consists of a glass of beer mixed with a shot of whiskey.

In Britain, the term “boilermaker” traditionally refers to a half pint of draught mild mixed with a half pint of bottled brown ale, although it also refers to the American shot and pint.
