Names to ponder

Bottling our barleywine on Monday has got me thinking about names again… And I can’t get away from the hobo motif. Do any of these strike a chord (or trigger a better name?):

Bindlestiff Barleywine
Glad Rags Barleywine
Jungle Buzzard Barleywine
Steam Train Steve Barleywine

I encourage you to go here or here for inspiration.

    “Will work for barley wine”?

    I like Jungle buzzard, but I am not sure what it is.

    How about “Under the Overpass Barleywine”?? or “Will Wash Your Windshield Barleywine”? I could even see if the vagrant who approaches my car at the entrance to I-85 everyday is available for a sitting so you can sketch his likeness for your silhouettes?

    Boxcar Barleywine? A picture of said hobo in the open door of a boxcar?
