Another Reason to Love Germany!
Beer was invented more than 13,000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia when some fine men tried soaking roasted grain in water. This slightly alcoholic brew became a global sensation and made its way to Germany, where Germans rediscovered it with a touch of their culture.

Beer Production in Monasteries
Predominantly based in Southern Germany and spread across other parts of the country, there were many beer production monasteries in Germany, dating all the way back to the year 1000. Some of these are still available in Kloster Andechs, Weihenstephan, Weltenberg, and St. Gallen. Beer was considered a staple drink even better than water and consumed by adults and children. Fascinating, isn’t it?
Beer Purity Law
A special brew of barley malt mixed with some Bavarian hops, which was a popular recipe in Hallertau was later codified in 1516 under the Beer Purity Law. According to this law, all beer in Germany must be produced only using hops, clean water, and Barley.
