Type Beer cocktail Commonly used ingredients one-half shot (1 part) of Irish whiskey, 3/4 pint of stout (~24 parts) and one-half shot (1 part) of Irish cream Preparation see the article Notes original recipe: shot glass: 1/2 oz of Baileys, 1/4 oz of Kahlua and Irish whiskey fill A carbomb, also called an Irish carbomb or Belfast bomber or Flacco Bomb, is a boilermaker made with stout (e.g. Guinness), Irish Cream (e.g. Baileys) and Irish whiskey (e.g. Jameson). The name references the drink's Irish components and the car bombings used most notoriously by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA) during The Troubles. The Jameson is floated on top of the Baileys in a shot glass, and the shot glass is then dropped into the stout. Once mixed the drink must be consumed quickly, because it will curdle. It is traditional to float a small potato in the mixture in the manner of an olive in a Martini. The name of this cocktail is sometimes considered offensive due to its reference to IRA terrorism. It is not uncommon for genuine Irish pubs to refuse to serve them. It is common in some areas for people to shout Tiocfaidh ár lá as they drop the shot glass into the Guinness.
