The Circle of Beer 27 7, 1:45am

@valenknight Well that's not right. Helan går would translate to "the whole goes" which I think comes from olden days, that there was a tradition when drinking to pour beer in one cup and send it around for everyone to drink.

It's also here that the word "lagom" comes from. It means just right and it's thought that it came because you had to drink just right so the beer would go lagom (word for word it means "team around)
