--------------------------------------------- Gwendolyn Rose Ojeda A top ‘o the morning To the Irish mead To the bartender more tips For this pleasant mead was Sweeter than a fair maiden's lips Over to the brisk taste of an amber The refreshment of a smooth pale I was hanging on the edge Waiting for my cask-conditioned ale ------------------------ Brian Hutton Golden, amber, pale or porter, doesn't matter, just bring me a beer clear as the Northern night, fresh as the company I keep. And maybe just one more before I sleep. ------------- Marcus Kevin Fishly There once was a man who did not have a fear when he sat down and drank a six pack of beer his belly did bloat, his weight it did rise but the beer gave the feeling of being so wise The thought of it cooling, so frosted and near in the mug it sits so golden that beer the taste is so good never bitter or queer bringing always a laugh and never a tear Many a time in that room full of cheer a wrong emotion did come from that beer it was never right to hold it so dear replacing importance with just another cold beer ------------ William Butler Yeats A statesman is an easy man, he tells his lies by rote. A journalist invents his lies, and rams them down your throat. So stay at home and drink your beer and let the neighbors vote. ------------------------ Oliver Holmes Let schoolmasters puzzle their brain, With grammar, and nonsense, and learning; Good liquor, I stoutly maintain, Gives genius better discerning.

--------------------------------------------- Harry Daniels Be one who drinks the finest of ales. Every day without fail. Even when you have drank enough, Remember that ale is wonderful stuff. ------------------------ Andrew Reily Here’s to temperance supper, With water in glasses tall, And coffee and tea to end with— And me not there at all! -------------------------- William Yeats Beer comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That's all that we will know for truth Before we grow old and die. I lift the glass to my mouth, I look at you and I sigh. ------------- Lyndon Bryan What's the use of drinking tea? Indulging in sobriety, And teetotal perversity, It's healthier to booze. Come on lose those blues. Mix yourself a Shandy, Drown yourself in Brandy. Sherry sweet, or Whisky neat, Just grab some lbeerthat's handy! ------------- Jim Ninn The jolly old barkeep, he comes up to me He drops down a beer and says “this one’s on me.” But his smile fades quickly and turns to a sneer When I say I’d like oat milk instead of the beer. Ah, oat milk, Ah, oat milk, oh how I love thee Your sweet golden shower I taste with such glee. I’ve loved no women as I’ve loved the groat The cool and refreshing Splash down my throat -------------------- Sean Arthur We love to go drinkin’ at Old Olaf’s Pub Where fine is the beer and fillin’s the grub. We’re served at the bar by a pretty blonde lass And we sing out our hearts and raise up our glass. -------------------- Bart Ferando Beer, oh Beer you are my friend The Yoda to my Luke When life is crap you help me mend Until you make me puke. -------------------- D.M Runi We have a huge barrel of beer, but no cups. That’s fine with us. Every morning We glow and in the evening we glow again. It's glorious beer, beer my friend. Special thanks all for sending in the poems!
