I think Creaky Bonze pretty well got the answer.

Here is how you make “swill”. You take the pot you ate your supper out of and don’t rinse it out. Just put it in your bear bag and hang it up. In the morning you just add some hot (or cold) water to the pot and stir. The result is swill. It’s nutritous, so drink it down and clean your pot all in one step.

It’s the bottom of your can/bottle of beer. Usually warm and foamy, you drink it silly :slight_smile:

If it was a hot day, and you stopped in at a trailtown bar, and you met a nice local named Jill at that bar, and 1:30 a.m. arrives, and Jill and you are getting along famously, you may stumble over your thick tongue and mispronounce her name and there goes your “going native” opportunity. Unless she’s hard of hearing and thought you called her “swell”. But, that’s a story for 4 months from now. Unless you’re a girl, too.
