BS: Why not shorten it to 'Horse Punch*

Then again some tavern owners might wish the name to be confused with what the patrons name the beer on tap. ;-)

Does that have anything to do with why the Brits like it served at room temperature?

"Horse Punch" sounds too reminiscent of "Dead Dog Cider."

Sounds like a patent medicine, like headache powder, but for one losing one's voice.

Isn't a Horse Punch a very large hole maker? Or is it a cousin of a rabbit punch?
