The first word is spelled 'uisge beatha'. See http://web.raex.com/~agincort/uisgebeatha.html for details.

The second word is spelled 'uisgebaugh' and means the same thing.

They both look like mis-spellings of the Gaelic for whisky.

Have fun with strong spirits

Could be wrong, but these both look like mis-types of one or more Gaelic words for whisky. MacFarlane's (Scottish) Gaelic/English dictionary at http://www.ceantar.org/Dicts/MF2/index.html has uisge-beatha as one correct spelling.
