Thank you very much for those answers all of you, just a few more to go now!! There are a couple more, but I wonder if there has been a misprint on number of letters, unless anyone can see otherwise -

65. Sounds like a friend more knowledgable (10) - BUDWEISSER ??

115. A district of New York (10) MANHATTAN??
Only one "s" in Budweiser, so 10 letters is OK for that.
Sorry - can't count. 9 letters for Budweiser, but it must be the right answer.
56. Former Wimbledon player is Hakan Mild.
Have you got no 79 Jewels cocktail(1,1,4) I have put this on AB twice, and nobody has come up with an answer yet.

I agree budweiser fits so perfectly with the clue, but not enough letters, so haven't got this one either.

I'll swap you those 2 for no. 107 SCOTCH.

79 J.W. Lees (anagram) - Manchester brewery

Thanks very much for scotch! I should have worked that one out!!

Just need no 94 now (something whiskey?)

That's if there is a mistake with number of letters in Manhattan.

Thanks again.
Question Author
Also assuming there is a mistake with Budweiser number of letters, it really fits so well with the clue can't think of anything else it could be!
I've got atholl brose for no. 94, but don't know where I got that one from! Reluctantly going with budweiser!
Question Author
Thank you very much poodledoo for that! checked it out and it's right, never heard of it, but I think I've finished it now, thanks again!! Can concentrate on one of the many others I have lying around now.
Rather obscure, but there is a short film called "Palweiser Label" which was shown at the Seattle Film Festival. See http://www.seattlest.com/archives/2006/06/15/s iff_the_films_flying_by.php

The plot appears to relate to a beer called Palweiser, presumably a spoof on Budweiser.

Fits the clue, but fictional and probably too obscure.....
To clear up some confusion..............number 58 has 7 letters not 8; number 65 has nine letter not ten; number 115 has 9 letter not ten.

The answer is usually the obvious one........there aren't many stinkers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the best
