Tangled Up In Brew: Use Beer As A Mixer
1 of 5
There's nothing like a cold beer on a hot summer night. East Village restaurant JoeDoe's Jill Schulster doesn't think you need to chose between suds and spirits. She combines both in her "prepared beer cocktails." Her favorite brew mixer? Dale's Pale Ale from Colorado.

Here is her recipe for the Honey Beer.

According to Raymond Chandler (The Long Goodbye) "a real gimlet is half gin and half Rose's lime juice and nothing else".

Why would someone go and ruin Dales with gin?

Dale's is one of my favorite beers. If you want to mix beer and liquer you should stick with Schlitz or Schmidts!

Best cocktail for summer or any time is a Melonball Cocktail.

Ice
1 shot of Vodka
1 shot of Midori (green melon liquor)
Pineapple juice over all.
Some places make it with organge juice but pinaeapple juice is really better.

Then there is the classic "Boilermaker"- drop a shot glass of bourbon into a glass of beer!

Shot of whiskey with a beer chaser is a boilermaker. When you drop the shot into the beer it's a Depthcharge.
