The Irish Car Bomb (a shot of Bailey's plopped in a pint of Guinness) is a popular drink around St. Patrick's Day, though some be surprised to hear it didn't originate in Ireland. In 1979, Charles B. Oat created the drink at Wilson's Saloon in Norwich, Connecticut, according to a booze blogger who studied bartending under Oat.
