Whiskey was an alcoholic beverage sold in the Palace Saloon in 1885.

History

The Palace Saloon's most powerful whiskey was 180 proof,[1] which Dr. Emmett Brown and Marty McFly attempted to use as gasoline in order to start up and run the DeLorean time machine, but instead it blew out the fuel injection manifold (though in real life, petrol cars can run properly on 180 proof alcohol, especially newer ones).

Buford Tannen spent five dollars on some "Kentucky red-eye" whiskey which he broke when his horse threw a shoe, as a result of which he shot the horse and had to steal another.

Doc tried some whiskey on July 4, 1885 and quickly passed out. On the morning of September 7, he repeated the process after losing Clara Clayton and passed out before Marty's duel with Buford. Chester and Joey made up a concoction known as "wake-up juice" which was poured into Doc's mouth. Doc's reflexes sent him screaming and dunking his head into the horse trough outside. Only after several more minutes did Doc recover from the whiskey.

Sometime in 1931, El Kid was stocked with many alcoholic beverages including McDermott's Canadian Whiskey. While there during June 13 of that year, Marty hit Matches over the head with a bottle of whiskey.

Whiskey was also present at the Enchantment Under the Sea dance at Hill Valley High School in 1955. On his mission to recover the Grays Sports Almanac from Biff Tannen, Marty observed through binoculars a member of Biff's gang, namely 3-D, pouring some Kentucky whiskey into the punch; ironically, the brand was "Early Times". At one point, Marty also discovered that principal Stanford S. Strickland kept a bottle of whiskey in a desk drawer in his office.

In 1985A, Lorraine Tannen poured herself another glass of J & B scotch whiskey while arguing with Biff.
