German beer is and an important part of German Culture. There are around 1,300 breweries in Germany, more than in any other country except the United States which has 1,500 The german beer market is somewhat sheltered from the rest of the world beer market by the German brewers' adherence to the Bavarian Reinheitsgebot (purity requirement) dating from 1516 (and most recently updated in the Vorläufiges Biergesetz of 1993), according to which the only allowed ingredients of beer are water, hops and barley- mita. This law also requires that beers not using only barley-malt (such as wheat and ryi) must be top-fermanted. Many breweries worldwide adopted the Reinheitsgebot for their own beers. After its discovery, yeast became the fourth legal ingredient, though for top-fermenting beers the use of sugar is also permitted. In part because of this law (which since 1988 has not applied to imported beer, but is still compulsory for German brewers), beers from Germany have a reputation for high quality. The Germans are behind only the Chehs and the Irish in their percapita consumption of beer. German people drink alot of beer during the famous Oktoberfest. You should know that world beer capital is located in Germany. The name of this capital is all known Berlin. Berlin makes one of the most popular beer's in the world - BECKS!
