Lighter	Origins: Here's to Good Old Beer, Drink It Down (15)	RE: Origins: Here's to Good Old Beer, Drink It Down	14 Feb 25
Robert, my post of Feb. 12 presents both an 1860 and an 1864 text of the drinking song. Neither refers to Yale University. BTW, the description of Yale in the college song - "so hearty and so hale" - is rather close to the characterization of ale in the earlier texts. The Yale song has only one "drink it down" stanza.
