This stein pays tribute to the German purity law written in 1516, which stated that only certain ingredients, like water, barley, and hops, could be used in brewing beer. This was so other crops needed for more important staples, like bread, wouldn't be wasted on beer. Now, 500 years later, this law is honored as the ingredients it calls out are considered to be necessary ingredients for the highest quality beers. Limited edition, 500 pieces.
