In the US, there's no point in doing either one if all you want to do is to be a community pharmacist. You'd also have a doctorate and go back and get a masters. It'd be an odd thing to do.
If you insist, I'd say clinical pharmacy would be more useful. More practical application when discussing which medications and therapies patients should take.
Pharmacology is how drugs work in the body. Patients really don't need to know that. While it's helpful for you, you really don't need to get an additional masters degree in it when you're trying to help patients. The Pharmacology masters is more if you want to work for a drug company or teach or do research.

Masters of clinical Pharmacy?.........never heard of it!
I am assuming that you are a PharmD when you say that you are a recent pharmacy graduate. Your question doesn't sound like someone who has graduated or even attended Pharmacy school.
Do you really think you can get a good answer here?

I don't understand I thought the minimum pharm degree (in the US) was a masters. Are you in the US?
