But now I'm thinking I may have remembered it wrong and it should be:
WinethenBeerand you'll feel queer,Beerthenwineand 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]wineafterbeer. Don't bother
[drinking]beerand thenwine.

What if you gobeer,wine,beer? But then you should be OKafterthe nextwine?

It's like I always say:
Wine before beer, never fear,
Beer before wine, everything's fine!
