re:Gambrinus as a mythical Flemish king, to whom the invention of beer is attributed.

any one who has spent any time drinking will know a few irish drinking songs-- including the classic "God bless Charly Moss, the man who invented beer!" but no matter who invented it, Beer is prove that God loves the common man, and it was for many years, it was England's salvation... for with out beer, the irish would have ruled the world.

now, it you haven't yet taken the pledge, i hope i won't find you in your cups, feeling no pain, tootled or plastered.
