n. Sexual desire encouraged by light or moderate alcohol intake, specifically beer or lager. Not to be confused with with the embarrassing carnal instincts of those who are completely pissed as they are rendered incapable, men suffer the brewer's droop.
Big girl in the red dress, she's just trying to impress us
and she's got the Barley Fever but she doesn't make a sound.
She's just hanging around.

Song by The Stranglers, 1976.
