I'm automating the process of building development-VMs for a project and having a really hard time getting sun-java-6 to install in a non-interactive environment because it really wants to ask about licenses. what are my other options are far as clojure friendly javas go?

Clojure requires Java. Clojure officially supports Java LTS releases (currently Java 8, 11, and 17), but also tries to ensure interim versions work as well. You can use any Java distribution, whether it's a commercial release from Oracle or an open source version based on OpenJDK (like Temurin).
Clojure Overview. Clojure is a dynamically-typed, functional programming language that runs on the JVM (Java 5 or greater) and provides interoperability with Java. A major goal of the language is to make it easier to implement applications that access data from multiple threads (concurrency).
Clojure (/ˈkloʊʒər/, like closure) is a dynamic and functional dialect of the Lisp programming language on the Java platform.
If I recall correctly the "accept the license" bit can be set explicitly as the output from the installation process says that the license has already been accepted at a later stage. Hence, look into the Ubuntu package and figure out how to do this.
I would not go the OpenJDK way as I do not believe it has passed the TCK yet.
EDIT: It appears that this is the way to do it:
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y java5-sun-jre || :
debconf 'echo SET shared/accepted-sun-dlj-v1-1 true; echo $(read) >&2'
apt-get install -y java5-sun-jre
