Rob guides us on a journey to discover the fascinating legacy of the Reinheitsgebot, the historic German Beer Purity Law, and how it continues to shape brewing centuries later. What if a 500-year-old law could guarantee not just the quality of your beer, but also a slice of cultural history with every sip? Join us on for this Alcohology short as we unravel the origins of this pioneering regulation, enacted in 1516, which revolutionized beer brewing by mandating just three ingredients.
As we toast to tradition, we'll discuss how Oktoberfest honors this brewing standard, with the the beers served at the illustrious festival. Prost to exploring a bubbling history that promises both quality and fun!
