Commercial Examples: Pilsner Urquell, Budweiser Budvar (Czechvar
in the US), Staropramen
Pilsner Urquell, the orginal "Beer of Kings" was started in 1492
and is still brewed and owned by the same family, a few generations later
Budweiser (like politics, by passing other rules) tried to by pass the Reinheitsgebot law
This says ONLY malt, hops, yeast and water can be used.
Budweiser (and most commercial brewers) has adjuncts, which is not acceptable under German law.
