After recently finding this site I've been slowly working my way through all the old posts on the weblog. I've found the references to Olde Frothingslosh Pale Stale Ale, but that brought to mind another similar thinly veiled hoax drink from a few years back.
Hiney Wine!!
Anyone who listened to much radio in the early 80's likely heard the "ads". Wonderfully twisted. For those who never heard of this the idea was that it was wine distributed in cans. With lines like "Grab a Hiney" and such the spots were full of double entendres.
A quick gooling brings up quite a few links on this bit.

I'm sorry, the word "not" was missing from my previous post. It should have read: Another feature of the wine was that it did not contain bubbles, because who would want bubbles in their Hiney. |

I was just converting some old cassettes into MP3s and came across a tape I made in 1983 from B-104 in Baltimore.
The DJ was doing his own comedy and one day started doing the Hiney WIne commercials. In Baltimore, the HIney WInery was located behind the Public Library in Arbutus, MD. "Hiney WIne. The wine that made Arbutus Arbutus". |

I was in middleschool when these comercials came on. My Dad and I would wake up at 5am on school days, laugh until our sides ached, and record them on cassette tapes which I found a couple years ago. Our Hiney winery was located behind the library in beautiful downtown Touchet (Too She) Washington. Another 2 road town near Walla Walla. I think I also still have a coffee mug from the winery. We had a wine fest at a local big hotel which my family went to; the other local wines had very few visitors yet the Hiney table was PACKED all day and they had now wine in those pull tab cans. |

I just acquired an old tape recorder 70's/80's model with a tape that is packed with original recordings of jingles for the Hiney Winery in Wabbaseka, Arkansas. Pretty neat..first time I had heard of it so I figured I'd do some research |

I was staying in Lake Worth, Fl in 1984 when my girlfriend and I would listen to "Y-100" ("Ft Lauderdale, Miami, and the Palm Beaches") to hear the Hiney Wine commercials. The DJ's handle was "Athlete's Foot", and they did all the Hiney shtick mentioned earlier. Each commercial would end with a little song: "Hiney in the morning, Hiney in the evening, Hiney at suppertime, If I give you some Hiney, willyou always be mine?" |
