There were times when people told legends of saints and blesseds, of their great piety and their alleged miracles, to give people an example of how to heroically keep one's faith and stay in God's grace. Nowadays, some of these stories are being told to help sell beer. We've already talked about the legend of "[[Saint Piva of Warka]]". Today, on the 416th anniversary (give or take a few days) of his death, we're going to take a look at a certain Błażej Pęcherek (pronounced: {{pron|bwahbWah|zhey}} {{pron|pen|Heh|rek}}), who lived in a region of what is now west-central Poland, known as Greater Poland. Better known as Father Bernard of Wąbrzeźno (pronounced: {{pron|vawm|bzhezh|naw|link=no}}), he is famous for his legendary role in the creation of Grodziskie beer.
