About drinking Wine and Beer one after the other; some years ago I heard
the ditty: Wine after Beer and you'll feel queer, Beer after wine and
you'll feel fine.

But now I'm thinking I may have remembered it wrong and it should be:
Wine then Beer and you'll feel queer, Beer then wine and you'll feel fine.

Which is it please?

In the original German;

Wein auf Bier,
dass rat ich dir.

Bier auf wein,
lass es sein.

Translation: I recommend [drinking] wine after beer. Don't bother
[drinking] beer and then wine.

What if you go beer, wine, beer? But then you should be OK after the next wine ?
