Things were getting progressively worse in Chelm. There was high unemployment and a lack of food.
The elders of Chelm decided to meet to solve their dilemma. The best hope for them was to sell beer. After a while they produced their first batch and sent it to Prague with the following letter:
O worthy brewmeisters:
Seeking to alleviate our plight, we have produced beer. But we are unknown. If such a famous brewer as you praised our drink, it would be a great help.
The Elders of Chelm
One week later came the reply from Prague:
"Your horse has diabetes."
