'perhaps schooner's' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'to boss filled with whiskey' is the wordplay.
'boss' becomes 'master' (I have seen 'The boss' mean 'master' so perhaps 'boss' could also mean 'master').
'filled with' is an insertion indicator.
'whiskey' becomes 'W' (alpha bravo charlie delta ...).
'to'+'master'='tomaster'
'tomaster' placed around 'w' is 'TWO-MASTER'.

'given' acts as a link.
