An Irish Pentathlon is to drink (in one night) these five beverages, listed here in no particular order:

• Irish cream
• Poitín (pronounced potCHEEN, Irish moonshine)
• Irish stout
• Whiskey
• (Hot Whiskey) Punch

The phrase was coined by Dan “The Liberator” O’Connell while we were drinking at The Field one night in the summer of 2003.
