Who’s Feeling Gambrinous?

January 26, 2013 By Jay Brooks

gambrinus
File this one in the pile of obscure, antiquated words that we should try to resurrect. I found this one on the blog, Obsolete Word of the Day.

Gambrinous adj. Drunk; full of beer.

There’s also a secondary meaning according to Wordnik, which is “adj. Of or pertaining to Gambrinus.”

gambrinus-1

    AMEN to definition #1 (but being full of beer doesn’t necessarily mean being .08+)
