+**Chorus:**
+//Here's to beer that tastes like beer!
+An amber glass of wholesome cheer
+A noble brew that has no peer
+Beer that tastes like beer!//
+For centurys the brewers craft
+Produced the most exquisite draft
+When he brews with what he oughter
+Barley malt, hops, yeast and water.
+[//chorus//]
+Let cheese be cheese and bread be bread
+Don't serve us soap or sponge instead
+While sausages may cause some fear
+For goodness sake let beer be beer!
+[//chorus//]
+Among the most requested favors
+Please avoid exotic flavors
+Fruits and nuts and spices queer
+Have no place in honest beer!
+[//chorus//]
+Oh stay the bung don't drive the spile
+On concoctions rank with adjuncts vile
+Cornflakes, rice and rats from sewers
+Fine for cooks but not for brewers!
+[//chorus//]
+So stick with what is good and true
+A beery tasting, smelling brew
+Then you'll earn our highest rating
+Refreshing yet intoxicating!
+[//chorus//]
