Beer Blessing!

[Rob_s_Wife]

I have no idea where I should post this, so I’m going with my usualy stomping ground here.

I found this while looking for traditions for the 12 days of Christmas. This was found linked through related new year traditions.

Beer Blessing
From the *Rituale Romanum *(no 58)
Bene+dic, Domine, creaturam istam cerevisae, quam ex adipe frumenti producere dignatus es: ut sit remedium salutare humano generi: et praesta per invocationem nominis tui sancti, ut, quicumque ex ea biberint, sanitatem corporis, et animae tutelam percipiant. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen

Bless, O Lord, this creature beer, that Thou hast been pleased to bring forth from the sweetness of the grain: that it might be a salutary remedy for the human race: and grant by the invocation of Thy holy name, that, whosoever drinks of it may obtain health of body and a sure safeguard for the soul. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

(Translation by Fr. Ephraem Chifley, O.P.)

You just solved my last gift idea - we do an adult gag gift exchange in my family. I’m going to frame this poem and wrap it with a 12 pack!
