I’ve always been a beer drinker
Didn’t care too much for spirits
But when I did it had to be
A simple glass of G&T
The other day I was in a bar
Thinking of what to drink
Fancied something different
But here was my predicament
When I said I think I’ll have a G&T
They looked at me confused
We have 50 sorts of gin for you
Here take a look at our menu.
There was so much to choose from
A brand from every town and city
And what is this fuss about tonic botanical
The choice in the past was full fat or low cal
So many combinations to choose from
Plus the dilemma of what fruit to add
Standing there scratching my head
I decided to have a beer instead.

- Comment from author about the poem: I am not sure whether gin and tonic has taken off in other parts of the world as it has done in Britain. But here there is so much choice in terms of; the type of gin, the type of tonic and what type of fruit to add. It is far simpler to order a pint of beer!!

So true nowadays, our local cinema had a gin tasting evening for people so that they could decide which of the ten gins they offered was most like.
As for beer, I will have a pint of Pig's Ear please.
Sounds good to me!
Try all 50 gins - yes? Then you'll know which one is best for you. Pity you may be on the floor blotto, by the time you've tasted them all!
