I'll look out for Woodford Reserve. If I still find it too sweet and harsh I'll be mailing it to you.
You may find it too sweet, although it's not as bad as many. It's not at all harsh though, and for me the intense flavor trumps most else. I toured the distillery a couple of years back, and one arm got drenched in the unfiltered stuff as the tour guide demonstrated how they filter it - the scent stayed with me the rest of the day, bringing a happy smile to my face whenever i would bring my hand near it. I detest cologne, but if my wife would pick me up a bottle of this stuff i'd cheerfully wear what i didn't drink...

Good thing the cops didn't pull you over on the way home and do an alcohol test eh. "Sure thing sir, it is your cologne. Right, we've heard that one before. Did you drink your cologne? Oh, you were at a distillery you say... you aren't helping your case sir... a demonstration? Sir, please, just come quitely and we won't mention the cologne story to anybody in your overnight prison cell." (Funnily enough Fiona's sister got pulled over by cops and was breathalyzed. She was over the limit but swears she hadn't had a drink in days. Turns out it was her mouth wash. She uses non-alcoholic mouth wash these days.)

Clamato[^]. A salty tomato-and-clam flavored beverage. There's a beef flavored variation called Beefamato. They're delicious, and if you overindulge along with alcohol you will become severely dehydrated. Well, i did at least. My head throbs just thinking about it.

I think he's referring to an American-style beer brewed by Anheiser Busch, named "Busch" and selling for a bit less than their flagship beer, Budwieser.

It's a very cheap beer that we discovered back in the day driving down to Endfest near Seattle. You can drop into any 7-11 type store on the highway, pick up about 42 Busch for the price of a liter of milk and laugh hysterically while drinking it and finding all the different ways to pronounce "Busch". You can do this because it has very little alcohol in it (to be fair few US beers do).

Ah. So by cocktail he must be referring to the cocktail of chemicals used to get a beer fermented in 24 hours.

Very nice with tomato juice, but what's Climato? Is that kid sister safe? BTW, Underberg also makes for a very good repair tool. A shot of that chased with a Castle Milk Stout and you're up and away! :cool:

As Shog has pointed out, this is Clamato[^]. When it was introduced into Canada, they used to have some pretty funny commercials on TV. Like people open a faucet over a sink and out would come some Clamato juice. Or a group of golfers seeking cover from the sprinkler system. Only the the sprinkler system was spouting Clamato again instead of water. Oh and I always misspell the word, too. :)

Clamato is awesome. Never tried Beefamato though. Any particular alcohol you recommend it with? I've only had it straight. BTW, its one of the best cures for a hangover.

Brilliant deduction! That must be it. X| Or if he's truly a red neck as he states, beer might be as close as he gets to an actual cocktail. :~ Cheers! :beer:

Vodka. Vodka, orange juice, and clamato is a solid drink. Or just make a bloody mary.

Semper Fi http://www.hq4thmarinescomm.com[^] My SiteCool. Never tried Kentucky moonshine but we have similar stuff in South Africa. Ireland has a similar drink too. Every country does I guess. In South Africa it is called wit-blitz ("white lighting") though it has other names too. Back home in South Africa I'd be called a red neck too (we say "rooi nek" though, Afrikaans) and I used to drink the cheap beer looked down on by those above me. *shrug*

When I lived there I lived at the base of Whiskey Ridge but was only allowed there when I took I guy I met home from work one day and I was watched from the time I went in until I left.

Yeah its was also called White lightning. Come to think of it I've got a 30 yr. old news clipping explaining where the name White Lightning came from. I've have to dig it out and put it on my site. Ours was either a corn or potato mash and just a little-dab-l-do-ya Thanks Mike
