Chaser
Significado: A smaller drink taken after a larger one; typically spirits after beer.
A chaser follows your main drink—typically a shot of whisky after a pint of beer, or vice versa. The combination accelerates intoxication and is associated with serious drinking sessions. 'Pint and a chaser' orders both together. Some drink the chaser first, 'chasing' it with beer.
