Kentucky Buck or Colonel recipe
It's just a Moscow Mule with bourbon, which is to say, it's a Moscow Mule but better. The ginger beer you use makes a huge difference in the outcome but you only need a few ounces. Something fancy like RGB is good but can overshadow the rest of the cocktail. My favorite is Cock and Bull.
