CALGARY, AB – This week is the 500th anniversary of the famous Reinheitgebot – aka the Germany Beer Purity Law – and two Calgary breweries have created a special collaboration beer to mark the occasion.
Wild Rose Brewery and Brauerei Fahr have brewed a Maibock, a traditional strong golden lager, using only the three ingredients mandated by the Reinheitgebot – i.e. water, barley malt & hops.
A cask of the collaborative Maibock will be tapped this Saturday April 23rd at Bottlescrew Bill’s in Calgary as part of an event commemorating the Reinheitgebot anniversary. See the Events page on the Bottlescrew Bill’s website for more details.
