King Gambrinus- Patron of Beer

King Gambrinus—often celebrated as the jovial “King of Beer”—is a legendary figure tied to the origins of brewing and the joyful spirit of good craftsmanship. Traditionally depicted raising a foaming mug, he symbolizes both the art and celebration of beer making. This carving captures his iconic personality: proud, hearty, and full of life. Whether myth, folk hero, or a blend of both, King Gambrinus remains a timeless emblem of festivity—and a perfect subject for woodcarving.
