Geeky question-- Alcohol for Abraham Lincoln's birthday?
My husband and don't always just crack open a Bud and drink. (Okay. We don't normally drink Budweiser, either.) We like to to silly things like pair alcohol with "holidays" for a theme. (i.e., Warsteiner for Reformation Day, Three Philosphers for Epiphany... Though this year, since we didn't have access to good liquor stores and good grocery stores, we did do Budweiser-- The self proclaimed king of beers; We had three for the traditional three wise men) My husband is a history geek and started doing Abraham Lincoln's birthday and George Washington's birthday to help teach history for our daughter.
For Washington's birthday, I thought of cherry wine and Sam Adams beer. However, I was trying to think of something for today, just for the heck of it.
Thanks for telling me about the Budweiser. Since we have evolved, we rarely drink it anymore as it has little taste to us. We call it a light beer. :-D
I'll look into the whiskey, but the grocery store at which I'll be shopping has a limited selection. I could go to the liquor store, but I don't think I'll have time and I don't want to take my daughter to it after I pick her up.
The alcohol part, is for us. :-D We're not doing a themed dinner, though we should have thought ahead. I remember as a kid, my mother would bake a cherry pie for Washington's birthday which is how I got the idea for the cherry wine for us. I'm sorry I didn't clarify. My brain is not functioning up to par. I didn't sleep well last night which happens almost every night, but I feel more exhausted today and apparently, not functioning well mentally. (I'm physically exhausted.)
Again, thank you.
ETA II: It also just occurred to me to look for "civil war era beer"... I was doing searches with Abraham Lincoln... I AM brain dead today.

I would say a Tennessee Whiskey. He lived in a cabin in southern IL when he was young.
I like your Sam Adams for Washington.
I don't mean this insultingly (its a joke). It sounds like your husband is teaching your daughter to be an alcoholic.

Not Tennessee whiskey, but Kentucky bourbon. Lincoln was born in Kentucky, not Tennessee (or Illinois).
