I remember being impressed with this when I saw it in the contest. I love the unusual wording to match the unusual character.
"at the
fair last fall."
She is a great character!
"She has bottles
everywhere. Some are
empty, but most are filled to
some degree by
berries and gin
or by berry-tinged
gin waiting to be
strained pure."
awesome image, unique...
I would recommend you change the title for uses other than the contest, and consider switching up on the "She" phrase that starts a few stanzas.
ex. Bottles are everywhere. instead of She has bottles everywhere, etc.
Excellent!

and love the smoothness of the lines as they flowed. good images too.
I see her in
my mind as
easily as I saw
her at the
fair last fall.
