The 1983 Gilbey's Gin Gimlets season was the 5th season of the franchise in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).
Recap
- Gilbey's Gin landed in the finals of the revived All-Filipino Conference (after a two-year absence of the league's most prestigious tourney) of the 1983 season, losing to the Crispa Redmanizers by a sweep, 3-0 in the best-of-five series. The Gimlets were powered by the hulking Lew Massey in the Reinforced All Filipino. Massey later teamed up with Jack Dorsey in the Open (3rd) Conference. Gilbey's places fourth in both conferences, lost a chance for another finals appearance that season when they bow to Great Taste Coffee, 126-118 in the first game of the double-playoff match on November 26.
