GAMBRINUS

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 440 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: GAG-GEO
GAMBRINUS , a mythical Flemish king who is credited with the first
brewing
  of beer. His name is usually derived from that of Jan
Primus
 , i.e. Jan (John) I., the victorious duke of Brabant, from 1261 to 1294, who was president of the Brussels gild of
brewers; his portrait with a foaming glass of ale in his hand had the place of honour in the gild-
hall
 , and this led in time, it is suggested, to the myth of the beer-king who is usually represented outside a barrel with a tankard in his hand.
