Is it "Beer then wine, you'll feel fine. Wine then beer, you'll feel queer," or is it "Beer on wine, you'll feel fine"? And does anyone know why the correct version is true, if indeed it is true at all?

I always say wine on beer feels queer, beer on wine feels fine. It works for me and I think that if you are tanked up on beer and then drink wine your body is processing the last half an hour - hour's beer while you are drinking the wine and then the wine is processed and you may find yourself a lot drunker than you intended to be.

When I lived in Germany, the phrase I was taught was "Bier auf wein, lass das sein, Wein auf bier, rat ich dir," in other words, to translate literally, "Beer on top of wine, leave it alone, wine on top of beer is to be recommended." Haven't got a clue why, though. A mixture in either order is, in my experience, not a good idea! Nov 10 02, 5:43 PM

I learned it as: Liquor before beer, you're in the clear. Beer before liquor, you'll never be sicker. Nov 10 02, 8:50 PM

Is it 'Beer THEN wine, you'll feel fine. Wine THEN beer you'll feel queer' (ie a little peculiar!). Or is it 'Beer ON wine, you'll feel fine...etc' and does anyone know why the correct version is true, if indeed it is true at all? Does anyone know the brand of beer or lager that was advertised on British TV with the following information printed RECOVERy SERVICE RING 061 228 0100? Why does scratching feel so good? Seriously. Does root beer have caffeine in it? What device do astronauts feel is the most important of all time?
