Text:
“Einem Jeden ist’s zu gonnen
wenn am Abend sinkt die Sonne
daß er ei sich geht und denkt
wo man einen Guten schenkt.”
(It is a blessing for everyone
when the sun sinks in the evening
that he goes and thinks
where one can do something good.)
Gambrinus, “the king of beer”, has long been a universal symbol of beer and brewing. It has been suggested that the character may be drawn from the claimed real-life inventor of hopped malt beer, Jan Primus (Johann I), a 13th-century Belgian Duke and President of the Brussels Guild of Brewers.
