What's The Difference Between Fireball Cinnamon And Fireball Cinnamon Whisky?

Fireball comes in two varieties: Fireball Cinnamon and Fireball Cinnamon Whisky. Although differentiated by just a single word, they are surprisingly different.
Most prominently, Fireball Cinnamon is much less boozy. It employs a malt or wine base rather than a spirit. The malt version is 33 proof, while the wine version is 42 proof.
Fireball Cinnamon Whisky clocks in at a much stiffer 66 proof — yet still below the customary 80 proof of a full-strength spirit, hence it isn't actually whiskey.
The company packages all the liqueur offerings in the same 50 mL containers, and even the label is nearly the same, leading to a series of lawsuits claiming false advertising.
