A beer cocktail is a mixed drink similar to a true cocktail. It is made predominantly with beer (including ales, lagers, stouts, and pilsners), into which distilled alcohol (like vodka, gin, rum, tequila, etc.) or other drink mixer is combined.
The distinction between a beer cocktail and a cocktail with beer is the relative amounts of the various alcohols. In a beer cocktail, the beer product is the primary alcohol by volume compared to the distilled alcohol or mixer.
