"Furthermore, we wish to emphasize that in future in all cities, markets and in the country, the only ingredients used for the brewing of beer must be Barley, Hops and Water. Whosoever knowingly disregards or transgresses upon this ordinance, shall be punished by the Court authorities' confiscating such barrels of beer, without fail.

Well it would be if It was around 500 years ago and we lived in Bavaria and I was the Court Authority.

Ah yes, the days of pilfering free barrels of beer and ravaging the hot village women. Those were the good ol' days.

Wait... the only thing different today is that they decided to include yeast as one of the ingredients that can go in beer.

And let us not forget those enterprising Germans that get around the law by brewing the beer with those ingredients, then mixing it with cola. :eek:
