~ Hurrah dem Hopfen, hurrah dem Malz ~ | |
This nice pottery stein by Merkelbach & Wick has an exuberant and self explanatory verse, ca. 1900. This verse rhymes in both German and English. | |
Hurrah dem Hopfen, hurrah dem Malz. Sie sind des Lebens Würze und Salz! |
Hurrah the hops, hurrah the malt. They are life’s spice and salt! |
