Krambambuli[edit]

de:Krambambuli (Getränk) and de:Krambambuli (Begriffsklärung) are an article and Dab page respectively on German WP. That article's title is probably a perfect translation of ours, but the :de: topic currently is broader: the lead sets that topic as not just the drink but the university-student song about the drink (whose lyrics are given). The Dab entries include

a story by a great German writer of the 19th century (with a nominal connection to a medieval bard who was both invoked and used as a source by Wagner!),
four films (presumably, per :de:WP & IMDb, all in German) based on that, and
a red-link entry (:de:WP seems to permit them) to a band apparently distinct from Krambambula (band).

I haven't tried to dope out the degree of connection or similarity between the two drinks, but the connection to the lore of (at least traditional) German student life (The Student Prince and all that) makes it likely that either a link to Krambambuli (drink) or mention of the (surely!) related name belongs in the accompanying article.
