I know Anthomyia pluvialis looks similar to this but this fly was much larger (about 1cm or more) ... I seem to remember that there is a muscid that looks like this ... perhaps? :)

I think it is Eustalomyia (Anthomyidae).

To prove that flies wern't decoration for whisky, but whisky was only to attract flies:
I've got from Chris a specimen of Eustalomyia, it is E. festiva
Unfortunelly my fly is not from the same date as fly on this photo. But we still havn't Eustalomyia in Gallery. I checkrd another post on Diptera.info this image is the best so far.
Chris, may be you post it as:
E. cf. festiva or
E. festiva/histro or
Eustalomyia sp.
