Probably that who was speaking used to drink a lot of Jaegermeister, which is an alcoholic drink.

Pounding drinks means to drink a lot of alcohol in a short time. Pounding beers etc.

To "pound" a drink of alcohol, also to "slam": to drink rapidly.
(these phrases, both "to pound" and "to slam", also have sexual connotations)
Also used in reference to drink: to "throw back" or to "quaff"
