History:

The name refers to the US B-52 Stratofortress long-range bomber. This bomber was used in the Vietnam War for the release of incendiary bombs, which likely inspired today's flaming variant of the cocktail. The origin of the B-52 is uncertain. One school of thought is that the B-52 was created in the famous Alice's restaurant in Malibu, California. Another school of thought is that the B-52 was invented at the Keg Steakhouse in Calgary, Canada in 1977. It is also rumored to have been created by Adam Honigman, a former bartender at New York City's Maxwell's Plum bar, during the late 1970's or early 1980s. - Wikipedia
