We would have been smack dab in the middle of Oktoberfest season had it not been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic but today is still National Beer Drinking Day – a wonderful reminder to enjoy the world’s most popular adult beverage.
Today is also St. Wenceslaus’ Day, patron saint of brew masters, named after Wenceslas I the Duke of Bohemia (commemorated in the song, Good King Wenceslas,) who was martyred on this date.
As I’m sure you will remember that New Prague, Minnesota is home the second-oldest family owned brewery in the U.S. (Schell’s)
and nearby New Ulm, Minnesota is home to St. Wenceslaus church.
So please enjoy the day.
