                                      The word chmiel in Polish stands for the word hops, as in the main ingredient used in making beer.  Hmmm ... Either they grew hops, worked in the hops fields, brewed beer and/or drank a lot of it.  &lt;img src=&quot;images/smiles/icon_smile.gif&quot; alt=&quot;Smile&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;  Smile ... having some fun with you.</description>
