What is the George Washington story behind the word Cocktail?
MOREAccording to About.com Washington and his men frequented a tavern where the drink glass was decorated with a cock's feather (a tail feather from a cock). Ironically Washington wore feathers in his hat and the cocktail originated when a fellow officer toasted to the "Cock's tail."

Eddie Metal's Black Cherry Recipe
This drink is made just like a Black and Tan however, the ratios are slightly different. This is my personal preference. I use a 34oz Beer mug, (a beer pilsner, pint, 12oz or 22oz mug may be used, but you need to keep the ratio the same). Fill a 34oz mug 2/3 full with Sam Adams Cherry Wheat. Using a spoon, or some other way of diffusing the Guinness, fill the mug the last 1/3 until full. Allow to separate. Serve and enjoy. If you want an extra little something, add approx. 5 Maraschino cherries after separation for an extra kick of cherry flavor as you near the end of the glass. When the beer is gone, you now have sweet, drunken cherries you can eat!
Guinness Stout
Gunniess is an Irish dry stout that was the produce of Arthur Guinness's brewery at St. James's Gate Dublin, Ireland in 1759. It is the most successful alcohol brand worldwide, Guinness is brewed in almost 50 countries and sold in over 120 countries. Guinness' unique flavour derives it's uniqueness from malted barley and roasted unmalted barley brews, the older recipe was to blend a portion of aged brew with a freshly brewed beer to give it a sharp lactic acid flavour. On another note, a dry stout is a dark, top-fermented beer, and dry stout is one of the few variants of a stout beer. The original reference of stout was of the strength of the beer, and the same dark brown beer in a later period has also been referred to as a porter, and the stronger verities were called "stout porter" and thus the history of a stout and a porter is pretty intertwined. Although today, a stout is strictly a dark beer, strength is not a qualification of a stout anymore. Top fermenting is one of the different beer brewing techniques, in which, the yeast is applied to the top of the wort ( the sugary extract of the malts and other ingredients that the yeast will ferment into a beer ) at a much higher temperature.
Maraschino Cherry
Maraschino Cherries are preserved, sweetened cherry, typically light coloured cherries like Royal Ann, Rainier and Gold varieties are used. Maraschino Cherries are used in many cocktails and Tequila Sunrise and Queen Mary are too bright examples.
The name Maraschino originates from the marasca cherry of the Dalmatian region, Maraschino Liqueur is made from it, and the marasca cherries that were macerated to create the pre-distillation liquor, were pickled and preserved for use, the steeping in spirit helped in the preservation, and since the production of these cherries and their alcohol pickle was scarce, the Maraschino Cherry, as they were known in Croatia because of it's origin in the Maraschino Liqueur making process, became a delicacy of the royalty and the wealthy across Europe.
Due to scarcity of the Marasca Cherry the Maraschino pickled cherry soon no more just Marasca cherries, other cherries were preserved in the same method and were sold as "Maraschino Cherry".
In USA, in 1912, the USDA defined Maraschino Cherries as Marasca cherries preserved in Maraschino Liqueur, but since Prohibition from 1920, alcohol preserved cherries fell out of preference and regulations prevented cherries from being pickled in alcohol too, and different brining methods were invented that produced pickled cherries that were far from the Maraschino Cherry that they claimed to be.
Most modern versions of Maraschino Cherries have little or no alcohol, and since post prohibition, under the pressure from the non-alcoholic preserved cherry industry, the FDA redefined Maraschino Cherries as "cherries which have been dyed red, impregnated with sugar, and packed in a sugar syrup flavored with oil of bitter almonds or a similar flavor" since 1940.
