| The Poetry of Beer |
| Jack Blindings Beer Is The Way ------- Oh come on, let that lovely brew rule over us; We’ll pour our glasses and drink in chorus; Dear me, I do seem to have grown so porous; Let’s us pour our glasses and drink in chorus. Well, you see, this beer, it is so very fine; I’m beginning to think I could speak in rhyme; I was so sad, but now I so shine; I’m beginning to think I could speak in rhyme. Oh, how my burgundy blood does now so flow; You know, more brew and maybe I'll play the banjo You know, I think I’m finally losing all my woe; Just, one more glass, that’s the way to go. -------------- |

Inebriate of my brew – am I – And Debauchee of Delight – Reeling – thro’ endless summer days – From tankards of my homebrew – ----------------- |

| J. A. Attacap (Apologies to Isabel Tolling) To Drink Differences in perspective Simply melt away after a liter or two of brew Different spiritual traditions Blend into one with fun As we dine with some barleywine Eclecticism is unnecessary If we’re already the same— A serious love of beer you say; Just pass the bottle I’ll join in song ofit's praise -------------- |
| Diane LaForge (based on limerick by Madeleine Begun Kane) National Beer Day We celebrate beer in April: April 7th is “National Beer Day.” Yay! But I hope you won’t When I say on behalf Of its worshippers: Why just one day? ---------- |
