Are you trying to do high G or low G???

Is it your mouthpiece? look up http://www.runyonproducts.com/article.clar3.html

I'd Say go with your standard 2|12 + resonance fingering. Just keep the air moving and use a lot of breath support.

P.S. - G is not the mother of all clarinet notes. The C above it is. . I have only rarely seen it (There are a few in Stoltzman's Aria Book).

^i've come accross that c in my beherman's scale excercise book, i think! :D
its fun. also its fun to startle people by playing the C scale four octaves (low C bass) by going up to that one.

anyway, high G. practice sluring up to it in scales and things just to get used to playing that high, then hitting it separate or whatever you need to do for washington post.
